[SunRescue] How to CD boot a SparcBook2 for Solaris 1.1B11 install?

Dummy me has lost what little bits of info I had on my SparcBook2
critter, and the thing may require a reinstall of Solaris 1.1B11.

Anyone, by any long stretch of the imagination, have a set of
SparcBook2 manuals that they could look up the correct cd boot/install
incantations?  I am close but not quite close enough.

3 0 /vmunix         boots the hd3

6 0 /vmunix         polls the cd but boots nothing
6 0 /munix          ditto

6   followed by autodefault      polls the cd but boots nothing.

I have the correct start of the incantation, but not the correct
kernel or possibly partition incantation.

IFF anyone has the correct cd boot/install incantation for Solaris
on a SparcBook2, or can look that up in the manuals, do holler what
it is.

Thanks

Bob
