Sun4's run out-of-the-box. The FAQ will direct you to two sources of
modifications to the 68020 port that will run on Sun3-50.

To run diskless machines you can boot over the network. Either use the
standard Sun netboot system (see the FAQ for the specifiq names that
must be used) or you can compile the generic Unix bootp that is
included on the CD-ROM (and use any names you want).
