stolen verbatim from sparc and only slightly modified from there... this
is going to need a LOT of work (any volunteers?)

+
+Please note that there are multiple bootable images and kernels, intended
+to allow installing OpenBSD/sparc64 in a variety of situations without
+requiring a pre-existing working operating system.
+
+The "miniroot{:--:}OSrev.fs" is a small bootable root filesystem that can be used
+for installation or upgrade where there is some means to copy the miniroot
+image into a swap or unused partition on the system, and also for diskless
+or net booting. This can be convenient if you have a existing installation
+of OpenBSD, NetBSD, SunOS, or Solaris and wish to test or upgrade the
+existing system to OpenBSD.
+
+These bootable images are also useful as "failsafe" boots for system
+maintenance and disaster recovery.
+
+The kernel and boot images are provided for net booting installations.
+While the OpenBSD bootblocks will work with the provided miniroot images,
+Sun bootblocks require a separate kernel image and root filesystem.
