Thanks for the replys. I went through the guide and found that all my
configuration was the same pretty much except I must have BootFile in
PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001 otherwise it will fail with PXE-E53:
no boot filename received.

Now I am having another problem.

It boots and lets me select type of installation. I select interactive,
it configures devices then "using DHCP for network config information",
then it after about 5-10 mins it says "NFS server 192.168.1.200 not
responding still trying"

I've looked through all the configs, I tryed stopping/restarting all
the services, I tryed checking to make sure DHCP is working properly
with another machine and it is, and I can also mount the
/export/home/installserver from other machines. It still fails on
this.

when it is to that point that it fails, i ran run showmount -a
localhost and it shows
192.168.1.214:/export/home/installserver/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot
that it has it mounted but it doesnt respond. Please help again.
Thanks.

my DHCP config:

Macro: PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001
Option: BootSrvA 192.168.1.200
Option: BootFile: nbp.SUNW.i86pc

Macro: SUNW.i86pc
Option: BootFile nbp.SUNW.i86pc
Option: SinstPTH /export/home/installserver

Option: SrootPTH /export/home/installserver/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot

Do you have a shell at that point on the client (Has the GUI started?)
If so can you check the routing and such?

Can you ping the client from the server at that point? Can you get a
snoop output from just before the failure and see what might have been
communicated?

i dont have a shell at that point, the GUI has not started, its still
at the grey screen. i can ping the client at one point in time from
another machine on the network just for a split second then it goes
dead. heres snoop at different times:

It may be loading a driver and having difficulty. Add -v to the boot
line (like boot net -v) and see if you get any information just before
the hang.

It may be getting incorrect information about routing which causes it to
do something strange with packets and such.
Try 'boot net -m verbose' and see what you get.

This Sun employee's blog entry might explain your problem:

http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/shepler/20050528#port_623_or_the_mount

It's very interesting reading, and instantly thought of your issue when
I read it.

(This is why I read http://planetsun.org/filter/solaris/ daily. :) )
