Here is the content for the above SunSolve link: Resolution 2X2X3ZK Internal ID use only. Reason: The above error occurs due to ambiguity in resolving the directory name " Solaris_* " located in the install image directory. This happens if more than one file or directory exists with " Solaris_ " in the install image directory. During the jumpstart, the install directory is mounted on mountpoint: /cdrom The problem is that the install image directory may have a link "Solaris_2.8" to "Solaris_8" To verify if this is the case, run the following command: # ls -l /export/install <--assuming /export/install is the install image directory -r--r--r-- 1 root root 6104 Feb 12 2001 Copyright lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 9 Aug 24 2001 Solaris_2.8 -> Solaris_8 drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 512 Jul 1 15:28 Solaris_8 The path name the jumpstart install script looks for: /cdrom/Solaris_*/Tools/Boot/usr whiches causes the ambiguity in the install script not able to resolve the image mount point.      |
