Hi Vikram,

I have some questions to help me understand what you are trying to do:

1. What image are you using to try to boot the client? Is it the AI .iso 
image? Or a liveCD image?
2. AI requires specific server side setup. You need to setup the AI 
service you want to boot from, and to install from. You can find 
information about this at:

http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/dev/AIinstall/

Did you use installadm to setup the AI service on your install server? 
For now, the AI install server must be OpenSolaris, not SXCE or S10.

Your entry below indicates you have an image which you are trying to 
boot. The failure you note below makes me think you have a liveCD image, 
you are trying to boot over the network. You cannot do this. To use the 
AI installer you must use an AI image. The AI installer is not included 
in the liveCD.

Regards,
sarah
