Okay -- I won't worry too much about that then.

I haven't finished trying to set up the Dell as a server to the
apple yet.  Are you bypassing setting up rarpd somehow?  The 
docs for FreeBSD Sparc64 (I know I know -- can't seem to stick
with one set of docs!) call for configuration of rarpd with
entries in /etc/ethers and /etc/hosts, and also the loader file
prefixed with the target ip in hex.  This is what I'm familiar
with from working with jumpstart on Solaris, but looks like 
you aren't playing with that at all.

Is the MAC in the sample dhcpd.conf you attached the one for 
the server (to limit serving to that interface)?

 False alarm, this was due to the system clock being reset to Jan 1 1904
due to
some messing around I was doing with the macio feature control registers.
This caused the NFS attribute cache for the root vnode to never be
populated,
resulting in an invalid file type.

 But, there's still a bug where the real-time clock can be cleared on
system
shutdown.

later,

Peter.
