Prakash,

Per your mail offline, when using an ISC DHCP server, the
option names set up in the macro need to be different.  The
output given via the installadm command is only compatible with
Sun DHCP servers.  For ISC DHCP server, set up the macro using
the following option names instead of the ones in the output.


BootSrvA  -->   next-server
BootFile    -->   filename
RootPath   -->   root-path


This issue is something that will be added to the AI FAQ
documentation.

Let me know if this solves your problem.


thanks,
-ethan
