I think there are about the same limitations for sun4/330 in 6.0 as they
were in UltraPenguin. Basically what has to be written is SILO support for
sun4 and TILO support for it as well, none of it has been written yet.
You can boot rh6.0 on sun4/330, provided you build a custom kernel and
instead of using TILO for the netboot image you piggyback it with the
ramdisk32.img from rh6.0. Then you should be able to do the installation.
