Even FAI is architecture independent, there are some packages, that are only available for certain architectures (eg. silo, sparc-utils). SUN SPARC computer can boot from their boot prompt and don't need a boot floppy. To boot a SUN use:
boot net
You have to convert the kernel image from ELF format to a.out format.
Therefore use the program elftoaout
(mentioned in the FAQ). The
symlink to the kernel image to be booted is not the host name. Look at the FAQ
at http://www.ultralinux.org
for more information. A success
