i'm trying to netboot my ss4 to install ultra-1.0.9 on it.

i followed the directions on the users guide, set up arp/rarp and tftp.

however, whenever i issue a 'boot net' on the prompt, i crash the switches
of the campus network... (really shitty by the way, the switches)

i have one question:

on another machine i have to run arp -s and rarp -s with the MAC and IP of
the machine i want to install? on both arp and rarp?

i browsed the man pages and i think i'm doing right, but the switches
continue crashing...

any help would be appreciated
