The (unanimous) answer is that you cannot run 4.1.3 on a sparc1000 or
sparc2000 as they are a sun4d kernel architecture and 4.1.3 does not
support this. This was verified by a couple of people who reported
trying and failing.
4.1.3 runs on Sparc10 and 600 MP systems because these are both sun4m
kernel architecture and this is supported within 4.1.3.
