***Update***, hicksd8 is close on his recommendation. However, OBP 4.27 is the minimum version per this article and this server does meet that standard but it does not recognize any USB thumb drives inserted so far.

I have had no luck so far. I believe that mounting the USB installation image from another box might be my best approach.
I'd feel safer installing from a CD/DVD ISO image if that's what you're going to do. I don't know what the differences in the images are, but a USB image might not work for a CD-based install.

Probably easier to run a long ethernet cable and just jumpstart the servers from your AI/IPS servers.

To clarify, my situation is that we have AI instances on our local IPS boxes. However, we have issues getting ports to said IPS boxes from our new servers that we must build. I have been tasked with finding a way to avoid making and waiting on requests to open up ports as our security team is not only slow but often works in a.....not detail oriented fashion Smilie
But you're allowed to install software from USB drives you fill up with bits you download from the internet?

Oooooh-kay.

EHCI(4) 						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						   EHCI(4)

NAME
ehci -- USB Enhanced Host Controller driver SYNOPSIS
ehci* at cardbus? function ? ehci* at pci? dev ? function ? usb* at ehci? DESCRIPTION
The ehci driver provides support for the USB Enhanced Host Controller Interface, which is used by USB 2.0 controllers. EHCI controllers are peculiar in that they can only handle the USB 2.0 protocol. This means that they normally have one or more companion controllers (i.e., ohci(4) or uhci(4)) handling USB 1.x devices. Consequently each USB connector is electrically connected to two USB con- trollers. The handling of this is totally automatic, but can be noticed since USB 1.x and USB 2.0 devices plugged in to the same connector appear to connect to different USB busses. SEE ALSO
cardbus(4), ohci(4), pci(4), uhci(4), usb(4) HISTORY
The ehci driver appeared in NetBSD 1.6. BUGS
The support for hubs that are connected with high speed upstream and low or full speed downstream (i.e., for transaction translators) is lim- ited. BSD
