Strange jumpstart behavior

2007-12-25 3:15:00

Has anyone seen an issue where the symbolic link

.../Solaris_9/Tools/Boot/etc/inet/hosts

(which should point at .../Solaris_9/tmp/root/etc/inet/hosts)

gets overwritten as a regular file at the beginning of the jumpstart?
I really didn't think I was doing anything unusual here but this has
got me going round in circles; apart from busting the jumpstart tree
it leaves the jumpstarted machine with a brain damaged hostfile.

It has the smell of something I could spend days hunting for, so I
thought I'd ask if anyone else has already spent those days...

Thanks

Tim
