- We have been having problems getting a diskless Sun 3/50 to boot from
- a Sun 3/260 both of which are running SunOS 4.0.3. The client has the
- server's and its own IP address and appears to download the boot.sun3
- file. Then we get the following error messages:
-
- Boot: RPC call failed (status 7)
- Boot: bad dialog with bootparam server (error 0x07)
- Boot: unable to mount root (error 0x07)
- root on fstype
- Boot:

- We are not running DNS or NIS. We have tried both long and short
- names for the server and client in the /etc/ethers, /etc/bootparams,
- /etc/hosts, and /etc/exports files. Any ideas?
