Subject: 64 bit problem

I have an Ultra 2 running solaris 8. When the machine boots it boots into 32
bit mode. I can tell this by running isainfo- kv.

When I try to boot to 64 bit mode by changing the eeprom
boot-file=kernel/sparcv9/unix - the boot fails with the following error

Warning: downrev firmware version Obp 3.11.2

Any ideas what maybe causing this - or what I need to do to upgrade my
firmware

Cheers
DB
