I tired to install the flar image using the method explained in this link 

http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/boot/flash/


I installed 119534-15 patch on the box whose flar image was required. Then 
created a flar image using 

flarcreate -n zfs_flar /flar_dir/zfs_flar.flar

I then  installed 124630-26 patch on the miniroot of Solaris 05/09 (update 7) 
net install image. This was done by unpacking the miniroot using root_archive, 
patching the miniroot using patchadd and then repacking it back. 

Profile for the jumpstart :

install_type flash_install
archive_location nfs <ipaddress>:/<flar_dir_path>/zfs_flar.flar
partitioning explicit

But the jumpstart fails with the following error:

Executing SolStart preinstall phase...
Executing begin script "install_begin"...
Begin script install_begin execution completed.

Processing profile
        - Opening Flash archive

ERROR: Could not mount <ipaddress>:/<flar_dir_path>/zfs_flar.flar
ERROR: Flash installation failed
Solaris installation program exited.


Any clues what could be wrong? 

Thanks.
