Found the problem. Its all related to the in.tftpd server on Solaris 8. I was trying to jumpstart a Solaris 10 x64 (06/06) using my Solaris 8 jumpstart server, but its tftp server doesn't support tftp options...so the GRUB menu would load, but then booting up the kernel fails. I found the problem doing a snoop on the jumpstart server and seeing a litany of tftp errors, and (duh) checking sunsolve. If you have a login to it, see document ID 6395719. Until I can upgrade my jumpstart server, I've copied over the in.tftpd binary from a Solaris 9 system on my Solaris 8 server and they all work now. My dhcpd.conf syntax was fine all along.
