[SPARCbook] Network Solaris install with pcmcia

Is their any way to totally re-install solaris using my pcmcia card?  I
dont know what I did, but after installing some of the tadpole patches
(that would hopefully have gotten my 3com card working), I broke
something, and solaris won't boot anymore, it just brings me to the bootup
menu like it does if you do a sys-unconfigure.  Am I stuck trying to find
a cd drive (which took me a while last time I needed one), or can I use a
bootdisk and get pcmcia working?  (BTW, the person who owned it before I
did had a very messed up minimal install, no man pages, no ppp, probally
missing a lot of other stuff, if I had a full one I probally wouln't have
gotten myself into this mess in the first place )
Thanks,
Mike
