Okay fix it. Done by # lsiutil, built a sparc64 package, later more
details about it.

But are you sure OpenBoot PROM supports software RAID?

Because I created a RAID by installer of the first two disks. Next
partitions for /boot, / and swap with the default values.

But rebooting it says the disk, or think the silo file, isn't
executable. Do not have the exact error printed, now. By a serial
console it goes off screen that fast. Or does it rename the disk?

So i do not know what goes wrong yet, but not out of the box. That's
clear for me.
