Netra 20 OBP version that supports WANboot

Managers,

Is there an OpenBoot prom version for a Netra 20 platform that supports
WANboot?

After scouring the patches available on the sunsolve site, the newest version
I found was 4.16.4, which does not have the required "network-boot-arguments"
environment variable. I know that you can boot from a Solaris 10 CD on a
platform with an older OBP version, but the whole idea of wanboot is a
diskless install, right? If there is not an OBP available for Netra 20's that
supports wanboot, maybe there is some other work-around that would not require
a cdrom -- a forth program or something that could be saved in nvram?

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Enoch
