Please Help,
I set up a jumpstart server and boot server on the same system and have
nis server on different system.  Bootparams and sysidcfg are on the
boot/install server.
When I issue " boot net - install" the client finds the boot and install
services but complains that, "the product distribution does not contain
a product table of contents" then proceeds to list the nfs shared
directories for root and jumpstart.
After that it goes to a working prompt ( the #) and the spinning
dash-slash.
I don't know if it is doing anything though and it has been at this for
3 hours.  The system are connected via 10Mbps hub so that might slow it
down a little.  Is there a way to tell if anything is happening?
Thanks for any help.
Dave Baldwin
