Solaris 10 - sun4v - unsupported platform group?
After a bit of searching I've found this question asked in various places in this forum without having an answer. Is anyone able to help me and the others out?

The problem seems to come down to this:
"add_install_client hostnamesun4v" returns "unsupported platform group".
"add_install_client hostnamesun4u" works, but when the client is booting it errors.
boot: cannot open kernel/sparcv9/unix
Enter filename [kernel/sparcv9/unix]:
In my case this is a T1000, which should use the sun4v platform. My install server is a v100 with a fresh install of Solaris 10; the same CDs I used in the setup_install_server process.
I think the answer is as simple as this: How can I get the following command to work?
add_install_client hostnamesun4v
When I get this working I'll post my solution here.
