Document network-boot-arguments for sparc64 diskless(8)
The Oracle OpenBoot 4.x Administration Guide[0] documents a few useful options for network boot. Basically, either {ok} setenv network-boot-arguments tftp-retries=0 {ok} boot net ... or {ok} boot net:tftp-retries=0 ... Newer machines like the T4-2 using OpenBoot 4.38.16 also support BOOTP/DHCP besides RARP: "dhcp,hostname=puffy" works as expected on my T4-2, but "boot-filename" and "boot-retries" remain unsupported on this particular machine despite being documented in the guide. 0: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E63648_01/html/E63649/gpvll.html#scrolltoc OK miod
