Jumpstart Sunfire V240

Hi,
I trying to jumpstart SunFire V240 Solaris 10, 2006_01. All the jumpstart files on jumpstart install and boot server are ok (tested on another machine Sun Ultra 10). But this system comes out with: "The file just loaded does not appear to be executable." after "boot net - install" and setting arp connection with the boot install server. (boot-device is set to net)
If booting the same Solaris version from a DVD it runs smoothly. Grrrrrr ...
Any ideas?
