The problem with the nvram vars is the non-availability on
the Indigo2 which is not capable of storing arbitrary vars
or arbitrary content in existing vars.
I would prefer a "SILO" the Sparc Linux LOader which is capable
of reading an ext2 filesystem, getting its config from there
and loading the kernel from an ext2.
