Mailinglist: port-sparc 

This is the dhcpd.conf entry I use for one of my suns - dhcp is served
from 192.168.2.1, NFS from 192.168.2.89

            host cp1500 {
              hardware ethernet 08:00:20:9f:1e:42;
              fixed-address 192.168.2.50;
              next-server 192.168.2.89;
              filename "/netbsd-GENERIC";
              option root-path "/usr/space/netboot/sparc64";
            }

The UltraSPARC I and II machines will likely require a flash prom
upgrade.  (Note that you can boot with DHCP after the moment that
the inetboot is loaded using RARP/tftp.
