Hello everyone,

When trying to install Sol8 on a Sunfire v100 I get the folowing
messages:

Executing last command: boot net - install
Boot device: /pci@1f,0/ethernet@c File and args: - install
Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet

Cannot load drivers for /pci@1f,0/ethernet@c
Can't load the root filesystem
Type 'go' to resume
ok

I know this is a common problem for netra type servers and that certain
patches need to be installed on the jumpstart server in order to load
the necessary drivers. Problem is, the following link is dead:

a.htm

I don't know where else to look for these drivers. If anyone has had
similar problems and was able to solve these please let me know. I'd
appreciate it if replies are sent directly to me because I'm not on the
mailing list.

Thanks,
