Jumpstart from linux problem
Hi,
I am using RH-AS as my jumpstart server for installing solaris 8 on a sun machine.
the finish script phase starts ok but some where in the middle it fails - i tried it servel times and each time it fails in a differnt place. I get "not found" message for all kind of basic command like awk, diff etc.
I think that for some reson the client disconnect from the server, but when i return to command line (#) after the failur and check it, the connection seems ok. I also tried pinging the the client from the server for all the installation process and there where no failur there.
can any one help?

uuid_time
UUID_TIME(3) Libuuid API UUID_TIME(3)
NAME
uuid_time - extract the time at which the UUID was created
SYNOPSIS
#include <uuid.h>
time_t uuid_time(uuid_t uu, struct timeval *ret_tv)
DESCRIPTION
The uuid_time function extracts the time at which the supplied time-based UUID uu was created. Note that the UUID creation time is only
encoded within certain types of UUIDs. This function can only reasonably expect to extract the creation time for UUIDs created with the
uuid_generate_time(3) and uuid_generate_time_safe(3) functions. It may or may not work with UUIDs created by other mechanisms.
RETURN VALUES
The time at which the UUID was created, in seconds since January 1, 1970 GMT (the epoch), is returned (see time(2)). The time at which the
UUID was created, in seconds and microseconds since the epoch, is also stored in the location pointed to by ret_tv (see gettimeofday(2)).
