Axi-440 + Solaris2.5.1 + boot net

Thanks to all who replied.

my original questio was - how can i install solaris 2.5.1 on an Axi -440

with an Ultra440 cpu using

a jump start instalation .

the problem - in order for you to use sol2.5.1 a kernel patch is needed or

else the box will get stuck right after the hme is loaded at boot time.

Solutions - none were given .

Insights - 1. use an external preinstalled disk and install using it.

             2. use the solaris special cdrom provided for that matter.

a solution i have came accross and workes best is to reduce the cpu speed

using nvram and than change it after install.

here is how
