Install hang at last step

[Jun Zhang_4]

which is "Run the configure scripts".
The install is from server. At the client screen, I have lines (already overnight),
nfs not responding from server
nfs from server ok
and repeating.
This is the second time I do the same 11.00 ignite and get the nfs problem at the end, so it's unlikely temporary network problem.
For the same server and client, I did ignite 11.11 before without this problem.
The only difference I know is that the post config scripts use to be under /var/opt/ignite/scripts, now they are under /ant/scripts, and I did add /ant to the tftp entry of inetd.conf.

/ant needs to be exported by nfs not tftp.

edit the /etc/exports file and add the directory, then run the exportfs command to update the configuration.

[Steven E. Protter]

makes sure network speed and duplex is consistent between the nfs server and its client.

lanadmin -x 0

checks lan0

Any HP NIC's 100 BaseT and slower really require explicit NIC settings in /etc/rc.config.d/hpbtlanconf (ex attached)

This is true of the network switch as well.

Also, NFS patches should be installed.

As far as ignite goes, the mini-kernel is pulled/pushed via tftp, the rest of the image goes NFS

I did the /ant exporting, and things are the same.
If nfs has problem, why it came only at the last install step -- Run configure scripts?
