Hello Markus

Please could we have more details on the fail?

I don't have a sunblade 1500 in my collection so can't replicate your
experience.

I can however confirm that the FreeBSD-10.1-RELEASE-sparc64-disc1.iso
works successfully on a Naturetech 777P (UltraSparc IIe driven laptop)

Kind Regards

Craig Butler
