Greetings,

I am trying to jumpstart a V210 using the Solaris 8 2004/02
distribution. Here is the result for "boot net - install" from the 'ok'
prompt:

The same jumpstart environment works for other sun4u equipment: ultra5
and ultra2. Also, the Solaris 8 2003/07 distribution works fine with
these V210's.

I cannot find information about this particular problem on sunsolve or
sun-managers archives. Does anyone know why this is happening? Thanks.
