I'm able to remote boot my sun 3/60.  My kernel is 1.1  (accually I can't 
do a full boot, I have something screwed up in my config, and I havnen't 
had a chance to look, but I do have a console prompt of some sort, so the 
kernel is at least loaded)

I'm useing linux 2.0.    Note, if you are using linux to netboot you need 
to compile rarp into your kernel, this is normally not done, so if you 
have linux, compile your own kernel.  This may or may not be true of 
other OSes used as a RARP server.  If you haven't accually captured a 
RARP reply, don't be sure that replys are sent.  (okay, so I have spent a 
bit too much on pre-alpha networking code)

I'd probably upgrade on general principals, but it shouldn't be needed.
