As a side note to my initial stab above... Once I have the jumpstart server working, I need to port it over to a Linux host. I already have pxe-linux chain loading the grub and kernel files from the Jumpstart. But it doesn't seem to like to work either (after the kernel loads), so I started down this path of an All Solaris environment to work the kinks out.
On our real network... windows servers are doing DHCP, so we have scopes with the BootServer and BootFile parameters set for our Linux machine which serves Kickstarts and now chain loads Solaris grub for jumpstarts. On our real network, all of the NFS file shares are served from an EMC NS500G NAS Head on our SAN. All of this has worked great for Linux (and even Windows - but we don't usually need to pxe boot to install Windows...they're usually just VM clones of our gold master VM). Solaris seems to dislike this heterogeneous setup...though I'm not sure the environment has much to do with why it doesn't properly ID the system or grab the jumpstart profile. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
