It can be done, but there is a caveat. You will need either an extra x86 or sparc machine to do it. The Solaris boot CD can only be correctly read on the platform for which it is designed, so in order to run setup_install_server for sparc you need a sparc, same for x86. However once you have done this you can tar up the directory and copy it to the other platform(in a different directory), everything else will work fine. Also you obviously have to setup dhcp and pxe for the x86 machines.
