See the infodoc titled
FAQ on Booting Solaris to either the 64-bit kernel or the 32-bit kernel It contains the following - Q6. How do I configure the system to boot a 32-bit kernel? If the Ultra machine meets the hardware and software requirements for 64-bit boot, the boot-file variable must be set to kernel/unix. If not, then the machine will boot 64-bit. The boot-file variable can be set by either the Solaris eeprom command or the OBP setenv command. eeprom: Login as root and use the eeprom command to set the boot-file parameter to the 32-bit kernel: # /usr/sbin/eeprom boot-file="kernel/unix" The next system reboot will boot the 32-bit kernel. setenv: From the system's OBP OK> prompt, use the setenv command to set the boot-file parameter to the 32-bit kernel: OK> setenv boot-file kernel/unix |
