I once installed openBSD on a cd-less sun from my linux machine. I was
working on debian, but my ram seems to be too broken to do it (my sun
sucks and is broken in many ways). The install process is a bit of a
pain, and takes a long time to master the approximately 6 different
components you need to have running simultaneously on the server side,
but it can be done, and you feel cool for doing it. Here is some info
regarding the process:
