Hi guys.
I'm helping a friend install 4.4 (Sparc64) on this SunFire V120 he  
got for
free :) It's a very nice box with a working Solaris install. It  
boots the
install.iso and proceeds to install, but when we get to the point of
selecting a root disk... the only option we have is [done]. OpenBSD seems to detect both drives (sd0 and sd1) but not place them in the list to select
from.
That's weird.  I have a nearly identical machine with almost the same  
configuration.  The only difference without checking dmesg line-by- 
line is that mine has one disk drive rather than two.  I'll check my  
dmesg when I get home.
I was able to install a 4.5-beta snapshot on it without issue.  I also  
booted it off a 4.4 snapshot a few months ago, but I didn't attempt an  
install (just zero'd the disk), so I couldn't tell you whether it gave  
me the option to install on disk or not.
