Summary - problems jumpstarting a new v240

Folks,
Thanks to all that replied - It is, sadly, as I expected the new hardware
will not accept and thing earlier than the 12/02 release of solaris 8. I
had hoped there might be a PROM hack to get round it - But a couple of you
warned me off attempting such nonsense.

So I am updating my jumpstart images now, and the "urgent" new server build
will have to wait.
cheers

Folks,

 I am getting this error when jumping a flashy new V240

Cannot find kernel file /kernel/sparcv9/unix

I can jump any other type of box I have tried on the jumpstart image is
2.8, but it is a little old.

Is there a prom setting that needs to be changed here ?

I will summarise - I have found a similar problem posted before but no
summary :(

cheers
