~From the archives, it looks like the Sun clients won't work with K12LTSP
because they use a proprietary protocol to boot.

Take a look at this though:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/k12osn/2003-May/msg00002.html

~From that it seems you can get them working provided you have a Solaris
server to bridge the gap between them and your LTSP box. This seems
overly complex to me though...another link in the chain means one more
thing that can break. If you already have a Solaris box to play with I'd
give it a shot, but otherwise I'd try and get some different clients
instead.

Good luck :)
