hi,

I want to install several SPARC machines, X86 and LXC Linux container from a 
Squeeze X86 box. I'm able to install Squeeze via OpenBoot and it works with the 
netboot (DHCP/TFTP/NFS) Image for SPARC. Under SPARC (Sunfire v245) I installed 
the FAI-Quickstart, copied /etc/fai to /etc/fai-sparc, changed several pathes 
inside the config and called "make-fai-nfsroot -v -C /etc/fai-sparc" and copied 
all files (/etc/fai-sparc + /srv/fai-sparc) to my X86 Squeeze box.
But now I hang, because the kernel doesn't find any "init", after the NFS 
mount, what's right. I can't use the pxelinux.0 file, because it isn't SPARC 
executable, so I use my own monolith Kernel (which I use for a NFS based rescue 
system). So, I don't know, what I have to do now. My sources are:

http://fai-project.org/fai-guide.html#_anchor_id_sparc_xreflabel_sparc_fai_on_sun_sparc_hardware_running_linux

and google (a lot of).
