Good so far. On the 3000 the real kernels comes out of the boot partition,
however, probably /dev/dsk/c6d0s3 on your machine (but double check with
rdb -H /dev/dsk/c6d0s0 first!).
Try
cd /stand
cat coffboot A3016unix > /dev/dsk/c6d0s3
^^^ (make SURE this is your boot partition)
Then shutdown & reboot.
