Could someone assist me with the following issue. Recently I downloaded a document that walked me through creating a Solaris 10 Sparc jumpserver. It was only when I tried to use the server to push an OS to a client box when I realized that the document was a step by step intrcutions for a Solaris 10 OS that comes in 2 CDs. The Solaris 10 sparc OS that I have in my possession comes in 5 CDs. So the instructions never asked me to do anything with CD number 3. Could someone send me a link where I can download a free version of Solaris 10 OS that includes either 2 CD or only 1 DVD (I have instructions to build a Jumpstart server using 1 DVD also). Please advise. Thanks
IIRC the extra CD's are for bonus software and foreign language locales so you may find you do not need them?
If the JumpStart server is not behaving as expected an ISO image of a Solaris 10 DVD can be obtained or media may be ordered from the Sun website from here:
Solaris Operating System - Get Solaris 10
Thanks for the reply. Ok, the scripts that involve CD 1 and CD2 completed. I connect it to working server via a serial cable and when I tip connect into this client, howcome its at a point where its asking me for CD # 3? If this CD is optional, it must mean that my server is complete. How can I pull it. I have tried ok boot disk at my tip connection but it always comes up to the same point. It wants to continue the installation.
Okay assuming you need not say yes to extra locales or software which would cause the thirs CD to be requested then you need to get the DVD image for Solaris 10, I may have been thinking of Solaris 8 (the last revision I used on CD rather than DVD).
