by I am trying to install a diskless RS6000/220 on an RS6000/530 server
with dual ethernet interfaces. I've read the Info Explorer warnings
about setting the hostname to be the same as the name assigned to the
interface through which the server talks to the client, and set the
name that appears in the SPOT to be the same as the name assigned to
the interface. Both names appear in the DWM_AKA entry in the
dwm_platform file, and an add client runs with no errors reported.
Unfortunately the client fails to reboot, reporting 'c06' on the LED
display (can't determine type of boot, according to the docs). A quick
'ls -lru' on the server suggests that the client is getting as far as
mounting the root file system and accessing its /etc/hosts,
/etc/filesystems and /etc/swapspaces files, but not anything else in
/etc (including /etc/inittab). Any ideas where I should look next?
