Jumpstart hangs

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to jumpstart a Sun-Blade-2000, XVR-500 graphics with Solaris
8 2/02 from a RedHat 9.0 jumpstart server. The Sun gets it's IP and
hostname fine. Here's the tail-end of what is reported from 'boot net
-v install w'...

....
Requesting Internet Address for 0:3:ba:16:d4:40

SUNW,eri0 : 100 Mbps half duplex link up
Found my IP address: ab55201 (10.181.82.1)
hostname: gmbu01

.... and that's where it stops.

I did patch the miniroot with the XVR-500 graphics drivers to stop
getting 'console frambuffer' errors so I know that it's getting that
much correctly at least. I also patched the miniroot with the latest
kernel patch (108528-21) and reports it when starting but made no
difference...

Output from a 'tcpdump' ends with this...

....
12:23:26.285863 gmbu01.1938856970 > leaf.nfs: 104 lookup [|nfs] (DF)

Does anyone have ANY ideas at all? I've thoroughly checked all my
config files etc and I can't figure out what is up. ANY suggestions at
all would be great!

Thanks!
Stuart
