Advisory to Sun Blade era SPARC64 system owners
Hi,
This is not NetBSD specific but I want to get the word out:
If you have one of those systems I advise you to immediately take out
your mainboard and check/carefully clean the back side with technical
grade isopropyl alcohol. The back side may have mounting studs made of
what appears to be a corrosive rubber compound that is slowly degrading
over time, eating your board! It very nearly broke my Sun Blade 1500
but I think I have managed to salvage it.
Kind regards,
-Tobias
