[gentoo-sparc] Ultra 10 CPU replacement?

[Steve Farmer]

Hi all,

My Ultra 10 was given to me by a former employer because it has a
flaky 440 MHz CPU.  It will run for hours, days, even weeks, but
eventually the machine crashes.  Sun wanted so much for a replacement
CPU that the boss laughed out loud and gave me the box.

I've found some cheap CPUs that appear to be Ultra 5 pulls, part
numbers 501-5039 (270 MHz) and 501-5148 (360 MHz).  I've looked at
some of the Sunsolve docs, but since I don't really know the part
number of my Ultra 10 system board it's not at all clear to me if
these CPUs will work for me.

Does anyone know for sure if Ultra 5 CPUs will work in an Ultra 10?

Thanks,

Steve
