help with jumpstart

Hello all,

I configured a jumpstart server ( the server is in the same subnet as the client) and gave boot net - install in the client.

The client boots up shows the banner and then displays error:

cant read disk label
cant open disk label package

and then goes to OK prompt.

What could be the problem? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

It sounds like your disk does not have a partition table (VTOC) on it. After jumpstart dumps you to a prompt...

# format

Select the disk. It will likely say "Disk not labelled. Label it now?" Say yes, then answer q at each prompt until it is finished.

You can restart jumpstart with:

# rm /tmp/.jumpstart
# suninstall
