    I am having problems Jumpstarting one particular machine, see below;

    ok boot net -v - install
    Boot device: /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/network@c,1 File and args: -v - install
    Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
    2ae00 Using RARP/BOOTPARAMS...
    Internet address is: 10.203.1.71
    hostname: www2n.test
    domainname: flagstar.com
    Found 10.203.1.200 @ 0:3:ba:23:ee:72
    root server: jumpout-qfe1 (10.203.1.200)
    root directory: /usr/local/jumpstart/Solaris_8/Tools/Boot
    Size: 338336+89970+75914 Bytes
    SunOS Release 5.8 Version Generic_108528-13 64-bit

    address = 0:3:b:66:13
    Using default device instance data
    mem = 1048576K (0x40000000)
    avail mem = 1026072576
    root nexus = Sun Fire V120 (UltraSPARC-IIe 648MHz)
    pcipsy0 at root: UPA 0x1f 0x0
    pcipsy0 is /pci@1f,0
    PCI-device: pci@1,1, simba0
    simba0 is /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1

    And then it just sits... When I do a snoop I see a lot of NFS traffic
    after the last line is echoed to the screen, but, eventually, it just
    sits as well. Does anyone have any advice on where to look for the
    problem. The Jumpstart server uses Solaris 8 2/02, and I am loading a
    flash archive. The /etc/bootparams file looks good, but it doesn't ever
    seem to request the sysidcfg, or am I missing something else.

    Thanks,

    David
