Hi Vlad,
Debugging Jumpstart is a time-consuming task.....but of course you want it
to work (been there....)
What makes you conclude it's the default route?? You don't tell whether it
worked before (before the JASS hardening)....
I'd try and snoop both subnets (with a bit of grepping you'd be able to see
what traffic goes between client, boot- and js-server.....
Lot's of JS-errors (non-visible) I ran into was NFS problems....this can be
recognized during snoops when client is re-requesting NFS-locations.....How
are your subnets separated?? By a router or firewall?? Are you sure you
allow the right traffic between them (firewall rules and router access
lists)??
Good luck!
