Hey all,
I've got my hands on 10 SunOS 5.6 SPARCStation 20 machines and I'm looking to get them up and running. They're all in various states of disrepair but I've got them all to a state where the hardware is working and the machine will at least attempt to boot.
I've only used Solaris as a basic user in a former job and haven't used it at all since I became interested in Unix/Linux. I'm looking for a few pointers as I go along as I can't find much in Sun's online documentation anymore.
I'm taking one machine at a time to build up my knowledge of the OS and the first I suppose is the best one to take has a fresh installation of the OS on it. I configured the hostname, Time zone, keyboard layout etc and let it reboot. When it rebooted the X session would not start so I rebooted it again and it gave me one filesystem error, which I cleared and then it would at least boot into a X login prompt.
The problem is now though that every time I attempt to log into either CDE or OW I just get the login prompt again.
All help appreciated,
Kev
