Fixed it. It turned out to be a confusion with the network card specification
in one of the config files, which meant that the boot was looking for a bge
card instead of a bnx. In essence I had an invalid sysidcfg file.
The two most useful links I used in the process were thus:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-5506/epucy?a=view
ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/products/servers/software/solaris/455522-001.pdf
The compaq doc is good for miniroot prep and additional driver installs (bnx
and cpqary3 being the most important).
Cheers
Joe

Subject: Flash installs for Proliants:Update
Hi,
In typical fashion, 5 mins after I sent this I had a breakthrough and found
an
obscure typo in menu.1st.XXXXXX for the client. Now however, I seem to be
tripping over on bootenv.rc. The last attempt appears to have ended up in a
network boot but with no install actions taking place.
Anyone got a sample bootenv.rc?
Cheers

Has anyone got a crib sheet for building a jumpstart for Proliants running
Sol10_x86 please?
I've been working at this for a week and I can't get past the thing ending up
in interactive installs.
I'm probably missing something trivial but I can't see what.
Any and all assistance accepted.
TIA
Joe
