SUMMARY: Booting from a StorEdge 3310

The short answer to this is: with some work.

The long answer is: Prepare the boot image on a disk that isn't dependent on
the Ultra3 card, install both the 32bit and 64bit versions of the qus
driver, ufsdump and restore that boot image onto a prepared volume on the
3310, mount that new disk on a system, edit vfstab,device.tab, set the dump
volume, etc, and then you can boot from that image from the 3310.
