As soon as I sent this I found it on Sun's site. 10/01 or later.

Subject: Solaris 8 and Sun 280R

I have a solaris version question for the group. I was unable to answer
from the archives or google. I have a 280R running Solaris 07/01 installed
from a jumpstart server. This 280 has 750 MHz cpu's x 2. I just got 2 new
280's. These happen to have the 900 MHz cpu's. When trying to jumpstart
from the same server that installed the other 280, I get the following error
message on both machines.

Rebooting with command: boot net - install
Boot device: /pci at 8,700000/network at 5,1: File and args: - install

krtld: load_exec: fail to expand cpu/$CPU
krtld: error during initial load/link phase

Could this be because I am trying to install 07/01 version? Does anybody
know the earliest version of Solaris 8 that can run on these boxes?

TIA

Ryan
