ping is ok, is I said

Code:
ping tjk-netshare
tjk-netshare is alive

ping tjk-ftp001
tjk-ftp001 is alive

ping 172.28.192.160
172.28.192.160 is alive

After
Code:
ok> boot cdrom -s

when I came to Instalation part:
Code:
q Flash Archive Retrieval Method qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq

  On this screen you must select a method to retrieve the Flash archive. The
  retrieval method depends on where the archive is stored.  For example, if
  the archive is stored on a tape, select "Local Tape".

            Available Retrieval Methods
            ========================================
            [X]  HTTP
            [ ]  FTP
            [ ]  NFS
            [ ]  Local File
            [ ]  Local Tape
            [ ]  Local Device

     F2_Continue    F5_Cancel    F6_Help

I've chosen many times FTP, NFS, Local File methods. All of them gave me 1 error:
ERROR: Could not find archive

Even more, I tryed to mount external Hdd (and nfs) manualy :
closed the installation by pressing F5 and entered to the shell.


Code:
mount -F ufs /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s2 /mnt/hdd
cd /mnt/hdd
ls 
icr001.flar

and then went back to the installation by entering


Code:
# install-solaris


- Flash Archive Addition -------------------------------------------------------

  Please specify the local file path where the Flash archive is located.  For
  example:

     Path: /export/archive.flar

  ============================================================================

                    Path: /mnt/hdd/icr001.flar                                                











  ERROR: Could not find archive
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     F2_Continue    F5_Cancel    F6_Help

Same ERROR: Could not find archive with manual NFS:

Code:
mount tjk-netshare:/edb4tel/shuhrat /mnt/net
cd /mnt/net
ls
icr001.flar
