Dear Sun Managers,

I was installing Solaris 2.5.1 11/97 (after using the Operating Environment CD) on a 440 MHz U10 and after rebooting the workstation, the following message appears always :

timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet

I could see that it was trying to boot the U10 off the net , so I tried to force it to boot from disk with the OBP commands :

setenv boot-device disk
boot disk

but still got the same result after rebooting.

Please advise as to what could be the problem.

Thanks,
Mira.
