Original question at the bottom.

The information is on the release notes that came with the system, but I
don't have the copy because the system was unpacked elsewhere.  The URL
for Netra X1 software is:

http://www.sun.com/products-n-solutions/hw/networking/solutions/sunsnetra.html#software

Now I just have to patch the jumpstart, which I've never done, but
should hopefully be straightforward.
