As suggested I've put the new 18giga 10k rpm hd into the indigo2. I've downloaded disc1, disc2, disc3 ... tar.gz and extracted into the boot vm.
After that I've started the indigo2 and formatted the hd (phew really a looong operation :o ).
When I finally go to the "Install System Software" and select remote directory I put the vm ip address, the remote directory (/disc1/dist) and it seems to start downloading the miniroot from the vm. From now on strange things starts to happen.
Sometimes I receive a message like this:

Code:

Settings $netaddr to 192.168.1.24 (from server )
It appears that a miniroot install failed. Either the system is
misconfigured or a previous installation failed.
If you think the miniroot is still valid, you may continue booting
using the current miniroot image. If you are unsure about the
current state of the miniroot, you can reload a new miniroot image.
You may abort the installation and return to the menu, or you can
fix (reset to normal) the miniroot install state
See the 'Software Installation Guide' chapter of Troubleshooting for
more information.

I then press 'r' and it appears that the miniroot starts to download from the network (I see the progress bar going all through 100%). After that all I get is this error screen:

Code:

Unable to execute network(0)bootp()192.168.1.13:/disc1/dist/miniroot/unix.IP22: invalid argument
Unable to load network(0)bootp()192.168.1.13:/disc1/dist/miniroot/unix.IP22: ``network(0)bootp()192.168.1.13:/disc1/dist/miniroot/unix.IP22'' is not a valid file to boot.
Failed to boot

Is there something that I'm doing wrong?
