Hi Guys,

Thanks to Dan, I was able to resolve this issue. I was using the wrong
architecture for my ultra5, it was supposed to be sun4u instead of
sun4m. However, now I am getting the following error:

Searching for JumpStart directory...
not found..
Warning: Could not find matching rule in rules.ok.

I have searched everywhere but can't seem to find a reason for this. I
have the files in the correct locations but it is still not finding my
jumpstart directory. Any ideas as to why this might be happening?

Thanks in advance,
