Jumpstart Solaris 7 question

answers. The exact solution was based on Ed Keizer's answer and my reading
the Advanced Installation guide section regarding the jumpstart setup for
the fourth time:
Ed Keizer:
We have seen this when we had missing files at the install server. The
install
server is the server mentioned in the bootparam install feature.
install=server:/miscx/solaris/Solaris-2.7
The directory should at least contain:
.cdtoc
.install_config
.slicemapfile
.volume.inf
Copyright
Solaris_2.7
We see the error you mention when we forget to copy the `.' files from the
CD.
That hint made me look at the entry in the /etc/bootparams file. I had the
install entry set to install=install-srv:/usr/export/install when it should
have been install=install-srv:/usr/export/install/sparc_2.7 What made me
change it was the fact that the sparc_2.7 directory was the one with the "."
files in it.
Thanks again, it's working great now.
