original question:
> Hello, all,
> I wonder if someone can tell me where to get OpenBoot PROM (lateast
> version). Someone said it can be download from Sun website, but I just
> can not find it.
The story behind the question is:
I ordered 300MHz CPU module upgrade for my Ultra2. After received
package, the document inside box said:
Each UltraSPARC-II module upgrade kit contains:
* This book
* UltraSPARC-II module
* UPA terminator module (for 300-MHz uniprocessor system)
* Antistatic wrist strap
* Flash PROM update CD-ROM and programming guide
I don't have the last item in the package. Sure, the new CPU won't work
for old Boot PROM.
I called Sun, they just push me around (every one give me another number
to call). I total got 9 Sun's phone #. Every place will ask you hold
forever, IT IS A PAIN ON THE NECK. Finally someone in the Sunleave the
message on my phone: OpenBoot PROM could be download.
I should ask the question in here first!
Thanks all of you for this wonder list!

Sun's OBPs are not available for download - they are proprietary.
_patches_
for obp are available, but you need to have an obp rev in the series 3.x
and
know which jumper to set before flashing it.
What did you want to do with the obp anyway?
