jumpstart problem (after tftp stage)

Gurus,

I am having problems with jumpstarting one Ultra AX-MP. The jumpstart
server configuration has not been changed for a long time, and before
this time I have never had problems with jumpstarting other AXMPs..

The box is coming up, loading TFTP image, and hanging right after that:

UltraAX-MP WorkServer (2 X UltraSPARC-II 400MHz), No Keyboard
OpenBoot 3.10.7 ME, 1024 MB memory installed, Serial #10429456.
Ethernet address 8:0:20:9f:24:10, Host ID: 809f2410.

Boot device: disk File and args:
{0} ok boot net - install
Boot device: /pci@1f,4000/network@1,1 File and args: - install
2aa00

"2aa00" is the last message from the box.. Then it has to be power-cycled,
break does not work to get to OpenBoot PROM..

>From the jumpstart server we can see that the last packet that the box is
sending is a confirmation that the image was successfully loaded via TFTP:

     ...
     js-srv -> new-srv TFTP Data block 310 (368 bytes) (last block)
     new-srv -> js-srv TFTP Ack block 310

There is no conflict in IPs, MAC-addresses, switch port is set to 100Full.
The openboot prom version is the same as on other AXMP boxes that have been
successfully jumpstarted (3.10.7).

Any ideas why it fails would be highly appreciated!

Alex
