Solaris 9 CD: invalid Boot for install server

Hi all,

I am trying to set up an install server for Solaris 9
from the two Sparc CD ISO files. I use lofiadm to
create two devices /dev/lofi/1 and /dev/lofi/2 then
mount them under /mnt/cd1 and /mnt/cd2. ( This is a
Netra X1 server, therefore I have no CD drive ).

setup_install_server gives me the error:

# ./setup_install_server /install_server
ERROR: Install boot image
/mnt/cd1/Solaris_9/Tools/Boot does not exist
       Check that boot image exists, or use [-t] to
       specify a valid boot image elsewhere.

The Release Notes does say about a bug on the DVD and
recommend to use the CDs for network install, but
still get the error.

Please shed me some linght,

Thank,

DT
