I've got a 420R that was abandoned by someone else at the company, so I'm
trying to jumpstart it to just clean it up so I can use it. Anyway, I set
up all the server-side jumpstart stuff, and then booted it with 'boot net -
install', and it reboots, and then I get:
Rebooting with command: boot net - install
Boot device: /pci@1f,4000/network@1,1 File and args: - install
Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
.
.
.
And it just times out all day long. I let it go overnight, because I have
seen it take a while before, but it always got there eventually before. I
know that it has network connectivity, because if I let it boot normally, I
can ping it. (however, I can't log into it because I don't know what any of
the accounts are, and it looks like it's all messed up anyway - it throws
file system errors all over the place - that's why I'm jumpstarting it). I
tried manually adding an entry to the arp table on my jumpstart server, but
that didn't seem to help either. Any ideas?
