Take a look in the Sun Flash PROM Guide for Workstations and Workgroup

3 tells how to setup a Flash PROM boot server. I have a boot server
setup and just configure a workstation to boot a file like
"Update.to.flapjack_lite.4.0.18@OS" that comes from the ZIP file.

I've done that before. Perhaps you're talking about a different manual, but I've netbooted Flash PROM updaters before for multiple sparc64 machines. However, this patch includes the file you mention, which is a shell script, rather than an executable that can be booted.
