When the system started booting, I saw it soughting the floopy drive as
the green light was on and off several times.  

Shortly after displaying the system information like:

SPARCengine(tm) Ultra CP1400 (UltraSparc-IIi 303MHz) OpenBoot 3.10.9 ME
with 192MB RAM.....

Got this message:

        Drive not ready
        Boot device: net  File and args:

But not going any further except the following message keep poping up on
the display:


        Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
        Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
        ......

FYI, My hard disk is new and nothing is on it.  The box is connected to
a LAN.

Any clues?

Thanks for your investigation.
