JET install using flash error: WARNING: FLASH Unknown FLASH access method

Question

Hi all,
hoping someone can shed some light on this. I'm trying to utilize a flar image to jumpstart a server and get a unknown Flash access method error;
# ./make_client testserver

The images is shared out under /export/install:
# dfshares

servername:/export/install servername - -
any help would be appreciated. JS is functioning when installing an image copied from media.
thanks
