Jacob:
Since you are booting from an old S10 CD, the wanboot there does not
have wanboot fix at all.
You can actually copy the wanboot from osol_111a to disk and boot from
that, however, you still will run into bug 6820873.
I copied the wanboot from osol_111a /platform/sun4u/wanboot to the
system /platform/sun4u/wanboot and try to boot from disk:
{1} ok boot disk -o prompt -F wanboot - install
