Help!!! Date: 31 Dec 1996 19:27:49 -0700 Organization: KDC-Online, ISP Lines: 13 Message-ID: <5aci35$5qv@kdcol.kdcol.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: kdcol.kdcol.com Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.netbsd.misc:5044 I have two Sun 3/50's. I also have a disk with SunOS from which I can boot it, but no tape drive. I will have an additional SCSI drive within the next few days to install on (if that will be easier). We (a friend and I) have been trying to install one of the Suns from the network. I boot with "b le()". It successfully RARP's it's IP address and loads the 'netboot' program (with the proper size). It then attempts to RARP it's IP address again. However, I snoop all packets on the network, but there is no activity on the network from that machine once the 'netboot' program has been loaded. What do I need to do to finish the install process?
