solaris 9 using jumpstart to restore

Hello All,

I use flar to install servers. I am not sure why it does not restore my hostname.bge0, hostname.bge1, ... from the same server with quad NIC card. Right now, I use a shell script to copy my networking information. Am I doing anything wrong or is flar behaving the way it is suppose to? Here is what I am using to create my flars
flarcreate -n "hostname-flar" -c -S -R / -x /opt/Flar /opt/Flar/flar-name.flar. Do I need to add anything to this?

thanks for your help
