Hi all,

Just received a pair of V880s, and put them both through jumpstart, but one
of them fails. The jumpstart server has not been changed recently, and has
been used since to successfully re-jumpstart one of our (older) V880s. It
seems to install Solaris OK, but fails when it tries to mount root when it
boots. I can boot cdrom and mount the root partition without any problems.
V880 has six internal disks, with Loop B enabled for multipathing. I can
manually install this box using the Solaris CDs, and it works fine.

Any help/ideas greatly appreciated!

Jez
