No, the wanboot fs only appears if you've booted from the network; in this case you've booted from a local CD (virtually). It's possible this didn't work in LDOMs back in 134, as the devices present a little oddly there; I just don't remember. Your workaround in that case would be to set up an AI server and boot it from the net.
