Netra X1 Jumpstart issue

I'm trying to set up a jumpstart server for some Netra X1s we have here.
Everything appears to work fine until the X1s try to access the dmfe driver.
I've downloaded the mis.netra-x1.259-3836-03.zip patche from Sun and applied
it to the system. I did notice an error when installing the dmfe package. .
.

>## Processing system information.

>chgrp: /cust/js/Solaris_8/Tools/Boot/dev/dmfe: No such file or directory

When I net boot the X1 it goes along fine then bombs out
with the following messages:

Here are the relevant stats for the file in question

Anyone got any hints on things to try? Or can anyone verify that the dmfe
driver at least has the right checksum, size and ownership?
