The general consensus is NO, there is no way to get the serial number
programmatically.
Some good suggestions for the future include storing the serial number in a
file like /etc/serialnumber where you can get to it later, or in the
"oem-banner" variable like this:-
ok> setenv oem-banner Serial# 123h4567
-or-
# eeprom oem-banner="Serial# 123h4567"
Then to get at it, it's a simple case of
# eeprom | grep Serial#
---ORIGINAL QUESTION---
Is there anyway to get the serial number of a Sun box from the shell ?
Like "hostid" or "showrev" will give you the Hostid.
