ITX Motherboard with an Elbrus CPU

So, is the Elbrus-8CB a SPARC architecture? Will mainline Linux for SPARC work with its proprietary bootloader, or will it need custom patches?

While this Elbrus CPU isn't SPARC, they do appear to also still manufacture SPARC compatible CPUs: http://csef.ru/en/news/8375

It's not, it's an Elbrus architecture with VLIW-style instruction set, own compilers, etc.
