Invalid Management Server Netmask
If the target server cannot access DHCP information or mount the distribution directories on the management server during a Solaris 10 deployment, you might have network problems caused by an invalid netmask. The console output might be similar to the following:
Booting kernel/unix... krtld: Unused kernel arguments: `install'. SunOS? Release 5.10 Version Generic 32-bit Copyright 1983-2005 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved.

To fix the problem, set the management server netmask value to 255.255.255.0. See To Configure the N1 System Manager in Sun N1 System Manager 1.3 Installation and Configuration Guide.
