Then the netboot.cfg should build a BOOT image (via tftpboot.sh?), while cdrom.cfg should use INITRD and KERNEL, and probably also the MINIISO target. > Also, the mkiso options in that section are totally wrong for sparc > boot cds. Note that the cd_image, cd_contents are obsolete now and probably were just a copy from i386 or something. The new way is the MINIISO target, as found for i386 and soon for mips, mipsel.
