The output from console:

ok boot net -install

ERROR: bpgetfile unable to access networkinformation
#/ <- this things is turnning so I think it is still running something.

and the jumpstart server bootparams file:
$ more /etc/bootparams
jsclient root=myserver:/jumpstart/sol9/Solaris_9/Tools/Boot \
        install=myserver:/jumpstart/sol9 boottype=:in rootopts=:rsize=32768

I have tried to debug the bootparams and it seems can not get file "rootopts"
