I'm getting the error: add_install_client: /export/jumpstart/OSx86/Solaris_10_2009_05/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot/platform//boot_archive does not exist, invalid boot image I'm using the following commands: cd /export/jumpstart/OSx86/Solaris_10_2009_05/Solaris_10/Tools ./add_install_client \ -d \ -e "00:14:4F:A6:F0:88" \ -c 10.19.19.7:/export/jumpstart \ -p 10.19.19.7:/export/jumpstart/Sysidcfg/Solaris_10 \ -s 10.19.19.7:/export/jumpstart/OSx86/Solaris_10_2009_05 Note: add_install_client would not except the MAC address using the format in your example. Am I using the wrong add_install_client? Thanks, Glen I found these instructions very useful but I hit a problem with the add_install_client in section 3.2.

I’m getting the error:

add_install_client: /export/jumpstart/OSx86/Solaris_10_2009_05/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot/platform//boot_archive does not exist, invalid boot image

I’m using the following commands:

cd /export/jumpstart/OSx86/Solaris_10_2009_05/Solaris_10/Tools
./add_install_client \
-d \
-e “00:14:4F:A6:F0:88″ \
-c 10.19.19.7:/export/jumpstart \
-p 10.19.19.7:/export/jumpstart/Sysidcfg/Solaris_10 \
-s 10.19.19.7:/export/jumpstart/OSx86/Solaris_10_2009_05

Note: add_install_client would not except the MAC address using the format in your example.

Am I using the wrong add_install_client?

Thanks,
Glen
