First: Thanks for your replies, it has helped me much, as i couldn't access
the net for reading the FAQ, the only thing i had was this list...

Ok, now the summary:

1. as the FAQ says: On serial terminals it's the BREAK key that gets us into
BOOT-PROM-Mode

2. My problem with the Sparc-5 booting via Net was, that i turned the diag
switch on, after having installed the Quadro-Ethernet-Board, and, as i
booted, it tried to boot via net.

Solution: Stop the boot ;-) , then turn diag switch off, and type boot.

Everythings fine, then!

Thanks a lot
