Solaris 10 network istallation server problem

Hi all,

I need to have Install server on SunFire V125 and have it as a source of network installation for other systems on the same network as they do not have CD/DVD drives. I created an Install server image from downloaded DVD disk launched "setup_install_server" configured the client "add_install_client" and launched the installation with ok boot net - nowin

The installation starts started correctly finding the Install server and when it comes to provide the path to the Install server boot image (inn my case: NFS Location: 172.23.13.91:/netinstall) it fails with the error:ERROR: The directory you specified does not contain a valid

Solaris OS image.

. The same disk starts the installation if it is used from the local drive on the computer.

bash-3.00# share

-/cdromro,anon=0""

-/netinstall/Solaris_10/Tools/Bootro,anon=0""

bash-3.00# netstat

TCP: IPv4

Local AddressRemote AddressSwind Send-Q Rwind Recv-QState

-- -- -- -- --

as-test2.nfsdpapa.vancouver.polycom.com.printer 496400 496400 ESTABLISHED

I will appreciate any help.

Besides that I wonder if V125 is supported by Solaris 10 as they did not include this model to HCL.

Thanks

Do you want the installation image (the packages) or the boot image (the runnable directory)? The boot image is not /netinstall, it's /netinstall/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot.

This is from the server? It looks like even if there were an image in /netinstall, it's not shared.
