Folks,

I installed freebsd on sun blade 100

root@d-espb04-125-186:~>uname -a
FreeBSD d-espb04-125-186 6.1-STABLE FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE #0: Tue Jun 20
07:18:58 MSD 2006     kvt@d-espb04-125-186:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
sparc64
root@d-espb04-125-186:~>

and can not enable audio hardware. I see the following line in dmesg output
(using default kernel):

pci0: <multimedia, audio> at device 8.0 (no driver attached)

I tryed to load audio support using "kldload sound". After that I get
/dev/sndstat, but:

root@d-espb04-125-186:/usr/src>cd
root@d-espb04-125-186:~>kldload sound
root@d-espb04-125-186:~>cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:
root@d-espb04-125-186:~>

Sun blade 100 is listed among fully supported systems, so I assumed, that
its sound hardware is also supported. Please let me know if I'm wrong, and
audio hardware is currently not supported, or I'm doing something wrong.

Thanks,
Kirill.

PS: I'd like also mention, that install.txt on the cdrom image states, that
to boot you need to issue the following command: "boot cdrom". At least in
my case I had to use command "boot cdrom /boot/loader".
