It would be an interesting "Sparc Ultra II" clone which could
boot up off of i386 floppies...

I do not know of FreeBSD/SPARC64 would run on that clone.  You
might want to check:

   http://www.FreeBSD.org/platforms/sparc.html
or
   http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/5.2.1R/hardware-sparc64.html
or
   http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/5.2.1R/installation-sparc64.html

for more details.
