You can't. The device and/or bus support uniquely needed for the
Sun Blade 100/150 was not produced in 32-bit; you can only run 64-bit
Solaris on a Sun Blade 100.

Mostly it shouldn't matter, inasmuch as 64-bit Solaris can run all
well-behaved 32-bit apps just fine; the only time you need a 64-bit
version of something to use is if you have apps that dig into the kernel
for information, or device drivers.
