Hi Guys,

I am trying to jumpstart a ultra5 and have followed all the instructions
I was provided and thought everything was setup correctly. However, I
am receiving the following error when trying to boot this u5:

After the arp/rarp messages I receive:
Retrying ... Check TFTP server and network setup
Retrying ... Check TFTP server and network setup
...

This is what I have setup on my server:

bash-2.05# pwd
/jumpstart/sol9/conf/server

bash-2.05# cat profile_u5
install_type initial_install
system_type server
cluster SUNWCXall
partitioning explicit
filesys rootdisk.s0 free /
filesys rootdisk.s1 1000 swap
filesys rootdisk.s3 3 unnamed

bash-2.05# cat rules
any - - profile_u5 -

bash-2.05# ./check
Validating rules...
Validating profile profile_u5...
The custom JumpStart configuration is ok.

./add_install_client -e 8:0:20:c5:31:f6 -c
192.168.0.5:/jumpstart/sol9/conf/server -p
192.168.0.5:/jumpstart/sol9/conf/server/sysidcfg24/ didar sun4m

bash-2.05# cat /etc/bootparams
didar root=192.168.0.5:/jumpstart/sol9/Solaris_9/Tools/Boot
install=192.168.0.5:/jumpstart/sol9 boottype=:in
sysid_config=192.168.0.5:/jumpstart/sol9/conf/server/sysidcfg24/
install_config=192.168.0.5:/jumpstart/sol9/conf/server rootopts=:rsize=32768

bash-2.05# cat /etc/ethers
8:0:20:c5:31:f6 didar

I have checked that my tftp server is working:
bash-2.05# grep tftp /etc/inetd.conf /etc/services
# ftp telnet shell login exec tftp finger printer
# TFTPD - tftp server (primarily used for booting)
tftp dgram udp6 wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd in.tftpd
-s /tftpboot

bash-2.05# grep tftp /etc/services
tftp 69/udp

bash-2.05# netstat -a | grep tftp
      *.tftp Idle
      *.tftp Idle

bash-2.05# grep jumpstart /etc/dfs/dfstab
share -F nfs -o ro,anon=0 -d "Jumpstart" /jumpstart

bash-2.05# share
- /shinda rw ""
- /jumpstart ro,anon=0 "Jumpstart"

bash-2.05# ps -ef | grep nfs
    root 26318 1 0 18:48:24 ? 0:05 /usr/lib/nfs/nfsd
    root 26316 1 0 18:48:24 ? 0:00 /usr/lib/nfs/mountd
bash-2.05# ps -ef | grep rarp
    root 24292 1 0 17:20:01 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/in.rarpd -a
bash-2.05# ps -ef | grep boot
    root 24300 1 0 17:20:01 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.bootparamd

Is there something that I am missing? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
