Yeah I've never seen a core during a jumpstart either. First time for everything....
Thanks for the reply - When the client dies, I get kicked out to a shell The server truss is run against /usr/sbin/install.d/pfinstall and the client truss against /jumpstart/sol_10_807/Solaris10/Tools/usr/sbin/install.d/pfinstall - the 2 pfinstalls are identical.

To set up my jumpstart server, I inserted the Solaris 10 DVD, and issued command "setup_install_server /jumpstart/sol_10_807" - nothing special, just that one command.
So, my profile, rules, rules.ok and sysidcfg files are in /jumpstart/config and my Solaris image is in /jumpstart/sol_10_807

TIA again...
Rick
