Debian-installer-version: Netboot beta 3 (2.6 kernel) 11-Aug-2006
http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-sparc/beta3/images/sparc64/netboot/2.6/boot.img

uname -a: Linux (none) 2.6.17-2-sparc64 #1 Sat Aug 12 17:17:29 BST 2006
sparc64 unknown

Date: Fri Aug 25 22:10:31 EST 2006

Method: Installed by setting up a tftp server on another blade running
solaris 9. Created a /tftpboot directory with the above boot.img which
was successfully picked up by the b100 blade upon rebooting using "boot
net" method. However, it could not pick up the network interfaces (2xSun
Cassini 10/100/10000 Ethernet) and the installation cannot proceed any
further.
