Boot load error
Hello,
I'm getting the following error when I try to provision an OS using N1:
Rebooting with command: boot /pci@780/pci@0/pci@1/network@0:dhcp - install
Boot device: /pci@780/pci@0/pci@1/network@0:dhcp File and args: - install
100 Mbps half duplex Link up
Timed out waiting for BOOTP/DHCP reply
TFTP server not specified
ERROR: boot-read fail
Evaluating:
Boot load failed
I know the image is ok, because I provision another system. They ARE however on different subnets, but I believe that was setup ok.

Well,
snoop / tcpdump for DHCP/TFTP on that subnet to be quite sure DHCP packets get to target. This way you wouldn't have to say "I believe" but you will be sure, that DHCP offers reached target and all is fine from this perspective ;)
DHCP carries the info from where the image can be downloaded. Then TFTP will be involved(but you seem to be failing before that step).
The other explanations could be, that DHCP server from your N1SM server doesn't run (not probable, since you provisioned something else) or there is some networking HW error (is the correct cable in correct interface?).
