  On this front, I'm trying to find a FreeBSD sparc64 stable build to install
on a v240 I have for testing.  I've not found it easily by googling, so if 
someone on the list could point me to sparc64 nightly's of the 9.0-STABLE
branch, or if you. Kurt, could make the ISO you built and have working
available, I'd very much appreciate it.

  I'm looking forward to experimenting with FreeBSD sparc64, and zfs.
I'm a zfs newbie.  :-)
