I've got a b72 zfs boot install server setup and successfully used it
to load another machine using Loris' pfinstall.
When I tried to load a w1100z box however, the boot image is
successfully loaded, I see the install menu and pick option 4 (console
text). A few Seconds later the heartbeat stops and I get the
following error:
Alarm Clock
ERROR: Unable to configure the network interface
exiting to shell
Running an ifconfig -a from the shell, I see the (bge0) interface up,
correctly configured with a DHCP address and I'm able to ping other
machines on the same (install) network!
Any ideas how to proceed past this error message?
PS: tried to resolve the issue by upgrading the w1100z to the latest
currently available BIOS (supplement iso version 2.5).
Thanks,
