After issueing the following command string on the jumpstart server

[bootserver:/jumpstart/Solaris_8/Tools]$ sudo ./add_install_client -s
bootserver:/jumpstart -c bootserver:/jumpstart
/config/ -p bootserver:/jumpstart/config/ -e 0:6:bc:15:ef:5e newserver
sun4u
cleaning up preexisting install client "legion"
removing legion from bootparams
updating /etc/bootparams

and invoking the following command on the install client

ok boot net - install

I got the following results from the client

Res
LOM event: +0h0m33s host reset

after this it didn't go any further

This is what /jumpstart/config/sysidcfg looks like:

system_locale=en_US
timeserver=localhost
terminal=vt100
timezone=MET
name_service=NONE
root-password=NONE
network_interface=dmfe0 {netmask=255.255.254.0 protocol_ipv6=no}
security_policy=NONE

Is there something I may have overlooked?

TIA,
