Bug#69905: Problem booting from SPARC installation CD

["Andrew Pollock" <andrew@asiaonline.net>]

Package: boot-floppies
Version: stable,
architecture: sparc
model: Sun
memory: 256M
scsi: none
cd-rom:        ATAPI
network card:  Sun Happy Meal
pcmcia:        none

I booted the system from the CDROM and selected IDE as the CDROM type. The
kernel proceeded to boot and then paniced. The last message I received was
"Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to the kernel."

I could not find a way to pass any options to the kernel as every time I
press i, the boot loader takes off and starts booting the IDE kernel image.
