Where I can download Solaris8 02/04?

Hello night_mare! I've exactly the same problem. Smilie
I need to install Solaris 8 because is a requeriment for the purposes in my work. I'm trying to install Solaris 8 in a logical domain with LDOMS in a SUN T5120 SPARC and I get "boot: cannot open kernel/sparcv9/unix" because my CDs don't have the kernel image. But now is very difficult to found this other release solaris8 02/04. Can you help me?
Tanks in advance!
