Fire V445 support status

[iwama at t3.rim.or.jp]

Hi mcl,

  Thank you for your reply.

  Actually, I also thought that V445 would work without problems as FreeBSD 
supports V125 and V245 as well as you. I have other choices but I believe it
is 
best to use ZFS on FreeBSD to make effective use of the eight disks of V445.
  This problem is more troublesome as I think it is much more difficult than

when I did send PR about Ultra 30(218478). I will try a little more hints
for 
solution.

All that I can offer is that I have run 10.3 and 11.0 on V215s and V245s.
I had assumed that they were similar.

Although a few developers do work on sparc64, unfortunately there is little
support for it in general in the FreeBSD developer community.
I used to do package builds but have not during this year so far.

I am afraid we are in a shrinking minority.
