I'm no linux-sparc guru, but I think the key combination your looking
for is "L1-a".  If you've a sun keyboard that's the upper leftmost key
(probably labelled "stop") pressed simultaneously with the "a" key.

If you're on a serial console, I think you can send a break to
accomplish the same thing.
