Just read the install notes; this is woefully out of date anyway.

-
-Initial test versions of a OpenBSD/sparc binaries install are available
-at
-	ftp.openbsd.org:/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/sparc
-Some mirror sites may take a day or two to catch up.
-
-The OpenBSD/sparc port runs on sun4c class machines, ie. the SS 1, 1+,
-2, IPC, IPX, SLC, and ELC. It works on most sun4m machines. It also runs
-on most models of the sun4 line (however, not on the 4/400, 4/600).
-
-The ftp directory contains a number of very large .tar.gz files in there,
-as well as this document and a helper install script.
-
-NOTE: THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY CHANGE WITH EACH SNAPSHOT.
-
-Until there are better instructions written, here's a rough idea:
-
-1.  format and partition the disk using sunos. yup, OpenBSD/sparc uses
-    sunos disk labels. i am running a quantum 105 with these partition
-    sizes:
-    a:    28140        0    4.2BSD     1024  8192    16   # (Cyl.    0 - 133)
-    b:    16170    28140    unused        0     0         # (Cyl.  134 - 210)
-    c:   204540        0    unused        0     0         # (Cyl.    0 - 973)
-    g:   160230    44310    4.2BSD     1024  8192    16   # (Cyl.  211 - 973)
-
-    Filesystem               512-blocks    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
-    /dev/sd0a              26090   18846    4634    80%    /
-    /dev/sd0g             149444  131496    3002    98%    /usr
-    amd:43                     0       0       0   100%    /home
-    gecko:/usr/src       1549722  851783  542966    61%    /usr/src
-    komodo:/usr/local     269346  243428   -1016   100%    /usr/local
-    newt:/newt.usera     1128328  836910  178584    82%    /tmp_mnt/newt/newt.usera
-
-2.  newfs it using sunos. yup, the filesystem format is identical.
-    UFS hasn't changed much over the years. (If you can, there is
-    a performance benefit from newfs'ing using OpenBSD.)
-
-    If you newfs using the OpenBSD newfs command, be sure to use -O
-    to specify the `4.3BSD filesystem format' for your / partition,
-    otherwise you will not be able to boot. The SunOS boot blocks do
-    not understand the extended 4.4 filesystem format.
-
-3.  put a SunOS /boot program in the root partition, and use
-    "installboot" to cause it to work. the "installboot" man page
-    says to do something like this: say you are running SunOS, and
-    the drive you are installing OpenBSD/sparc on is currently at
-    /dev/sd1. You have made the filesystems on that drive already.
-	# mount /dev/sd1a /mnt
-	# cp /boot /mnt/boot
-	# /usr/mdec/installboot -vlt /mnt/boot /usr/mdec/bootsd /dev/rsd1a
-
-4.  extract the provided *.tar.gz files onto the disk. the file
-    "install.sh" will help you do this.
-
-    mount your partition(s) in a proper tree starting at /mnt. In the
-    same directory as your *.tar.gz files are, run "./install.sh".
-    (Now you may cut the head off the chicken and spray the blood over
-    your walls and ceiling. :-)
-
-5.  copy /mnt/etc/fstab.sd to /mnt/etc/fstab and edit to match your
-    disk layout.
-
-6.  the install script copies the kernel called "bsd.scsi3" to
-    /mnt/bsd. Two sample kernels are supplied: "bsd" and
-    "bsd.scsi3".
-
-    Unlike SunOS and the ROM, OpenBSD numbers scsi drives sequentially
-    as it finds them. The drive with the lowest scsi-id will be called
-    sd0.  SunOS and the ROM map normally map sd0 to scsi-id 3. Thus, if
-    you have two drives, it's quite likely that OpenBSD will disagree with
-    the ROM.
-
-    The "bsd.scsi3" kernel gets around this problem, by hard-wiring
-    scsi-id#3 to sd0. The remaining drives will be dynamically mapped
-    to other sd* numbers.  If you have more than one drive you will
-    want to use this kernel.
-
-    the "bsd" kernel expects your root drive to be at the standard
-    SunOS sd0==scsi-id#3 location. If you have a second drive at any
-    of scsi-id's 0, 1, or 2, this kernel will NOT work for you. If you
-    know what you are doing, you could use this kernel.
-
-7.  your ROM may need some setup. make sure you boot from `new command mode'.
-    If your machine comes up and gives you a `>' prompt instead of `ok', type:
-        >n
-        ok setenv sunmon-compat? false
-        ok
-    this is needed because bsd cannot handle the old-mode yet,
-    and will firework on you.
-
-    you cannot use the security modes of the sparc ROM. sorry, same
-    problem as above.
-	ok setenv security-mode none
-
-8.  if needed, swap your scsi id's. now try a reboot. initially I'd
-    suggest you boot "-bs", then try multiuser after that. if you boot
-    single-user the bsd incantation for making root read-write
-    is "mount -u /dev/sd0a /". alternatively, the command reboot is
-    found in /sbin.
-
-9.  to boot from bsd by default, tell something like this to your
-    ROM.
-	>n
-	ok setenv boot-from sd(0,0,0)bsd
-	ok
-
-please let me know of any errors in these instructions or in the
-archives. if so i'll correct them.
-
-good luck.
