'flash_reboot_processing' file error while Sol9/05 jumpstart installation

I do Solaris 9/05 jumpstart installation from flash image. I have the following error:

...

Extracted 621.00 MB ( 99% of 622.37 MB archive)

Extracted 622.00 MB ( 99% of 622.37 MB archive)

Extracted 622.37 MB (100% of 622.37 MB archive)

Postdeployment processing

No local customization defined

cp: cannot create /a/etc/init.d/flash_reboot_processing: No such file or directory

Can not set reboot customization scripts

ERROR: Error while processing system postdeployment script

ERROR: Postdeployment processing failure

ERROR: Flash installation failed

So when I reboot the server it says:

Boot device: /pci@9,600000/SUNW,qlc@2/fp@0,0/disk@w500000e0112b7631,0:b File and args:

Boot load failed.

The file just loaded does not appear to be executable.

I guess maybe it is connected with

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-3804/6mjcffkoi?a=view

on some way ..

Please help.

I get the same error message after Solaris10 6/06 WAN Boot installation.

Postdeployment processing

No local customization defined

cp: cannot create /a/etc/init.d/flash_reboot_processing: No such file or directory

Can not set reboot customization scripts

Has anyone successfully completed a Solaris 10 6/06 WAN boot installation?

I have found that most of the Solaris 10 WAN Boot Install documentation has been incorrect on out of date. I have had to modify and rebuild my configuration files and webserver many times after each new error encountered. Going on two weeks that I have been at this. This is crazy...

Hmm..you might want to check whether you are using a version of flash that is supported on Solaris 10.

IIRC, Solaris 10 doesn't need/use the /etc/init.d/ scripts any more. It uses the SMF facility to execute init level scripts, etc.

Check if Sun has some patches you would have to install to use with Solaris 10.

I think you have to find a patch for the flar commands (that actually create the flash images).

I guess I've solved this problem for Solaris 9/05 with patch 113434, at least that is the only thing I've done and then could successfully use jumstart install.
