    I've got an Ultra 5 that was sans hard drive. I put a new drive in it, and
    I'm trying to jumpstart it (I've already set everything up on the jumpstart
    server) but it doesn't get very far...

    Rebooting with command: boot net - install
    Boot device: /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/network@1,1 File and args: - install

    and it will just sit there. Is there anything I can try to do to at least
    figure out what's wrong? Also, if it's a bad network card, can I just
    stick a PCI network card in there, and jumpstart from it? How would I
    specify that it's to try to use a different card to do the jumpstart?

    Thanks.
