HI,

Yesterday, i try to for first time, install a solaris8 whith JumpStart.
After instal and configure the boot server and install server (as the same), the client cant?t start trhe instalation.
The message that it show-me is a timeout for RARP packect. The Network segment is the same (its a switch).
My install server and boot server is a solaris 7. It is a problerm ? I think no.

Lets look my config (monsanto is the server, syslog is the client):

--------- /etc/hosts --------------------------------------------------------
172.30.2.7 syslog

--- /etc/ethers ------
08:00:20:c3:30:30 syslog

--- /etc/bootparams ---------------------------------------------------------

syslog root=monsanto:/opt/jumstart/Solaris_8/Tools/Boot install=monsanto:/opt/j
umstart boottype=:in sysid_config=monsanto:/opt/jumstart/sysidcfg/syslog insta
ll_config=monsanto:/opt/jumstart rootopts=:rsize=32768
