Following up on the issue of Solaris 10 10/09 (U8) dumping core on jumpstart.
I thought perhaps the image may have some problem, so I reloaded the
/export/install directory with another good ISO. I re-ran make_client
-f, and this time I boot net -v install. Same problem.
So, something is up with the S10U8 SPARC pfinstall? I ran it by
itself with the -D switch, that worked, but running it for real core
dumps. I've captured the last part of the truss.

-----------------------------------------
What I want to know now is, if the pfinstall from U8 is broken, but
the pfinstall from my U7 works fine, can I somehow manipulate my
miniroot or the install image so that I can use a good pfinstall
binary from U7, instead of the broken one (apparently) from U8?
cc'ing the folks at sysadmin, too, in case they have ideas.
Thanks. -CT
