[Stefan Weil]

Are you sure that it boots on real hardware? From the information given in
http://dlc.sun.com.edgesuite.net/osol/opensolaris/2009/06/README.osol-repo
I'd expect that this image is not bootable from CD-ROM.

A Debian CD-ROM boots without any problem.

[Artyom Tarasenko]

As already mentioned in the Bug 760060,

OpenSolaris doesn't support 32 bit SPARC machines, so you should use a
qemu-system-sparc64 and not qemu-system-sparc.
(Although booting [Open]Solaris to the command prompt is not possible
with qemu-system-sparc64 yet)

Also --enable-kvm makes no effect when host arch <> guest arch. And
there is no kvm
support for SPARC.

[Thomas Huth]

The URLs don't work any more, and according to Stefan's comment, this
was likely not a bug, so I'm closing this ticket now (feel free to open
it again if you don't agree).
