Here is my VERY VERY late summary to the problem. I apologize for the
same.
I had the luxury of being able to reinstall the machine and ended up doing

first place).

If you have a Sun Blade 1000, DO NOT INSTALL the Solaris 8 recommended
patches.
You will end up with a System that cannot boot.
I had 2-3 people email me about the problem and so i decided to send this
email in.

I'd look at backing out 108984 and/or 111097 which are
relevant to the qlc drivers.

Here is my original post
Dear Managers,
I just installed the Solaris 8 recommended patches from sunsolve.sun.com
on my until then working Sun Blade 1000.
After install, i rebooted the machine, and i get this error.
