I'll let someone else comment on the other issues (briefly: your best bet
is a network install, if possible), but I'm afraid you might be out of
luck with the 24-bit framebuffers; as far as I know there is only support
for 1 and 8-bit sun framebuffers. There's some work going on to get the 24-bit
SunSX (cg14) graphics working on the Sun4m, but I doubt that that is the
kind of graphics you have...
