A1000 Solaris 10 on Blade 1000

I have a SUN Blade 1000 running Solaris 10 and an A1000 array.
I know that this combo is not supported by SUN but will it work?
The raid manager software is installed and it says that the firmware needs to be upgraded -it is at I think level 2.05 something.
I can see all the disks in a probe-scsi-all but get errors when the system boots.
Should I upgrade the firmware? Do you know what patch to apply to do this?
Is there something more up to date than rm6 that would manage this setup?
Thanks

Reinstalling Solaris 9 on Sun Blade 100
