Hello there,

In order to force 100MB full duplex on the boot clientI added the
following script in /var/Solaris8/Solaris_8/Tools/Boot/etc/init.d

[jumpstarter:/var/Solaris8/Solaris_8/Tools/Boot/etc/init.d]$ cat
link_settings
ndd -set /dev/dmfe0 adv_10hdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/dmfe0 adv_10fdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/dmfe0 adv_100hdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/dmfe0 adv_100fdx_cap 1
ndd -set /dev/dmfe0 adv_autoneg_cap 0

This file is linked as
/var/Solaris8/Solaris_8/Tools/Boot/etc/rc2.d/S01link_settings ->
../init.d/link_settings

(Note: currently we're only using it for installing v100 servers, if
anyone is curious about the dmfe0 interface)

However, the installation of a flash file takes just as long as
previously when the cards were confugured as 100mb half duplex. Is this
the correct way to configure the interface?

TIA,
