NOTE 3: This patch supports both the Sun Fire T2000 and the APL SPARC
        Enterprise T2000 product lines, which share the same firmware.  We
        include two separate Sun System Firmware binary files, with different
        names corresponding to the respective products. The different names are
        provided for convenience - the two files are otherwise identical.  For
        the Sun Fire T2000, upgrading to Sun System 6.6.1 (or later) requires
        Solaris 10 Update 1 (or later) to be installed.
 
	The system may experience boot or other problems with earlier version of
        Solaris (S10_HW2).
 
	SPARC Enterprise T2000 (APL) configurations require Solaris 10 Update 3
        (or later) to be installed.
