If you have an x86 Linux box netbooting is pretty simple, you copy a file
into /tftpboot, you make sure you have rarp support in the kernel you set
the rarp, you make a link to the file in /tftpboot and you do boot net on
the Sun, if you only have Solaris boxes around you it's harder for some
reason ...
