Action

To solve the first problem:

1. Check how the dfstab(4) (/etc/dfs/dfstab on the install image NFS server) looks:

   share -F nfs -o ro,anon=o /jumpstart-dir

2. Run share(1M) command on the installed image NFS server, to make sure it is shared properly.

3. Check /etc/bootparams file on the net install server. Look for entries with incorrect boot path.

4. Make sure that /usr/sbin/rpc.bootparamd is running on the boot server. If necessary, kill and restart it.

5. Check /etc/ethers on the boot server for duplicate or conflicting entries.

6. At the prompt, run test net /test-net and/or watch net /watch-net to test the network connectivity.

As a workaround for the second problem, check the nsswitch.conf(4) file. If some of the entries point to NIS, such as:

rpc		nis	files
hosts		nis	files
ethers		nis	files
bootparams	files   nis

rpc		files 	nis
hosts		files 	nis
ethers		files	nis
bootparams	files	nis

You might have to update these files manually if they do not contain information on the client machine you are trying to jumpstart.

Then, remove the client with rm_install_client(1M), remove the contents of tftpboot, and again add the client:

add_install_client -c /jumpstart-dir/profiles  'client name'  'arch'
