Probably a silly question but one I dont know the answer to all the same..
I downloaded the following from sun - solaris 9 part 1 of the software
sol-9-u7-sparc-v1.zip
When I unzip it I get an iso file. How do I burn it to a cdrom and be able to insert it to solaris machine so that it will be picked up and installed?
I am using nero burner but not quite sure what I am mean to be burning it as etc...
in the menu
recorder->Burn Image
and make sure to finalize the CD.
Right - I used the burn ISO option, and this has worked fine.
Now I insert the cd to my ultra 10, and a window launches with 6 folers from S0 .. until S6 but I cannot find anything in these folders that will let me run a software installer for installing the stuff on disk..
Any ideas?
It's not like windows, the installer does't work that way.
As root type in the command
reboot -- "cdrom - install"
or halt the system and type
boot cdrom - install
at the ok prompt.
