Could not stop the extraction

I'm not sure what the error means that it would cause the install to fail.
Observing the /tmp/install_log, I can see the root disk file systems being made, and then:
Beginning Flash archive extraction
Extracting archive: EDHT208_FLAR_1
ERROR: Could not stop the extraction
ERROR: Could not extract Flash archive
Background:
I am building a flash archive using flarcreate off of a running Solaris 8 system and then attempting to bring up a copy of that system somewhere else (disaster recovery experiments).
I'm using the CD based install rather than a seperate jumpstart server.
I have had good luck using flash archives to build Solaris 9 systems based on a reference server, this is the first time I've tried Solaris 8, and the first time I've tried a "dirty" system.
Experience has proven that HTTP doesn't work as a flash archive retreival method because the flar's are larger than 2G. (This one is 8G.)
Solaris 9 gives me an FTP option, which works fine. (Although I really wish there was an SCP option.)
With Solaris 8, I don't have FTP as an option, so I'm trying it with NFS. It sees and grabs the flar ok, then it dies.
How do I get more verbosity in the error message if no one can guess what might be happening?
Could there be a 2G issue with the NFS method as well? If so, what recommendations to folks have to get around it?

I specifically excluded NFS mountpoints in my flarcreate (something that flarcreate initially complained was redundant) and this cleared the "could not stop the extraction" error.
I'm getting another error now, but working through regular Sun support channels to resolve it.
Thanks.
