Error downloading kickstart file

Hi,

During kickstart installation of a sun x4270 machines using dhcp/pxe the below error is obtained while the nfs file download. There are already some relevant bugs but I would like to how we can debug at this stage, i.e., what are the possible debugs?

+ Error downloading kickstart file +-------------+
->      |                                                              |
->      | Unable to download the kickstart file.  Please modify the    |
->      | kickstart parameter below or press Cancel to proceed as an   |
->      | interactive installation.                                    |
->      |                                               

The configurations seems to be fine, as the same is working on other set of machines. For instance, the pxelinux.cfg/"Hex" file consists:

default linux

label linux
        kernel red_hat/vmlinuz
        append initrd=red_hat/initrd.img ramdisk_size=65536 vga=no ip=130.130.21.121 netmask=255.255.255.0 ksdevice=eth2 ks=nfs:130.130.21.120:/myshare/ks.cfg acpi=off console=ttyS0,19200

in /etc/exports the directory is exported:

/myshare *(rw,sync)


nfs services are fine and the exported directories can be mounted on from other machines in the network:

 rpcinfo -p
   program vers proto   port
    100000    2   tcp    111  portmapper
    100000    2   udp    111  portmapper
