I have found this list of operating systems on the OpenSPARC website:
http://www.opensparc.net/operating-systems-supporting.html

I don't have access to UltraSPARC T1 hardware and have done my
port of Slackware 12.0 on an Enterprise 250 (2xUltraSPARC IIe at
400 MHz, sun4u). But sun4v support only depends on the right kernel
so I could build one specifically for it.
