smaug# file /usr/mdec/boot*
/usr/mdec/boot:        data
/usr/mdec/boot.net:    sparc executable

Is there a way to transform "boot" into a "sparc executable"?

I want to do some evil hacks that start by booting a system by net
(rarp/tftp), but then continue by either disk or net, depending on what a
link in /tftproot points to. With "boot.net" it works fine, with "boot"
the firmware just says that the file it just loaded doesn't appear to be
an executable.
