I believe there is a "SparcBook 1 Technical Reference" online which may include the maps.
The file /dev/mem is a window into physical memory and /dev/kmem into kernel virtual memory. It's possible to use dd(1) to extract data from these memories using the correct flags and permissions.

Thanks a lot for the hint. I'll give it a try next weekend.
