nvram/hostid

I have an Ultra 5 running Solaris. When I boot it, it's giving me:
The IDPROM contents are invalid.
Warning: IDprom checksum error
Invalid format code in IDprom.
Ethernet address ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Host ID ffffefff
I found the FAQ about SUN NVRAM/hostid written by Mark Henderson but I'm still
confuse after reading through it. I do not know what to put in for a value in
each of the location byte when reprogramming the IPprom. I do not know the
ethernet address and the host id. According the FAQ, the serial number is the
2nd, 3rd, and 4th byte of the host id. What about the first byte? Please HELP!!!
TIA. Will summarize.
