do you need something like:

mkisofs -B boot-141.fs  boot-141.fs boot-141.fs boot-141.fs boot-141.fs \
   -o NetBSD.iso /home/sean/NetBSD-1.4.1/

? (doesn't mkisofs need images for several different sun machine types
(not sure, just asking)?

Do you have the sparc kernel in "/home/sean/NetBSD-1.4.1/" or how did you
tell the sparc what to boot?
