Jumpstart Issue

Hi Gurus,
One of my Production Web Server Netra T105 Hard disk failed. The box is
at co-location and I need to bring it back up ASAP. I have one Spare
Disk sitting inside Netra which I am trying JumpStart but when I try to
Jumpstart I get error "Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet"
continuously. I checked my configuration on Jumpstart box i.e.
/etc/bootparams, /etc/nsswitch.conf, /etc/ethers,rules file and
add_install_client and all looks ok. This Netra has two interfaces -
hme0 - Outside VLAN and hme1 - inside VLAN so as my jumpstart server
which is in internal VLAN. In /etc/ethers file I have put the MAC
address which gor from banner command at OK promt and my doubt is that
this MAC address is for hme0 interface which is in outside VLAN and that
why its failing to boot. I chekced printenv command and made sure that
local-mac-address isset to true but I am not able to get the MAC address
of hme1 interface from OK promt. Is there a way I can find the MAC
address from OK prompt? Or any other issue is causing jumpstart to fail?
Any help/pointer will be greatly appreciated.
TIA
B
