Hi Bernd,

I did not test OpenSolaris on SPARC machines yet but I'm curious why wanboot support in the OBP is necessary. Can the OpenSolaris installation not be done with wanboot from CDROM/disk , e.g.

boot cdrom  -o prompt -F wanboot

In general, loading wanboot from media (cdrom/disk) instead of net would
be possible, but it currently doesn't work - the problem is tracked by bug
