[SPARCbook] Creating a bootable HDD

List,

I'm trying to make an external drive bootable. The drive was given to me
formatted and cleaned (i.e., not a file on it). I can't find
documentation that tells me what to do and I don't have any Solaris
disks, just the bootable Sol 2.6 on my Sparcbook 3's internal HDD. Does
anyone know how to do this? I can run the format program and partition
the external disk just fine, I simply can't find instructions on how to
copy the OS and make it bootable.

Thanks!
