I am trying to install Solaris 9 on our sun fire 280R using web start flash archive.
The master system is a Sun fire v480 and has it root file system mirrored using Sun's disk suite. Both �Machine A� and �Machine B� have the same number of disks and of the same size
The flash archive was created from master system (machine A) using flarcreate like
Flarcreate -n puffin-20070629 -x /proc -x /var/run -x /home -x /clone -R / -S -c /clone/puffin-20070629.flar
I then NFS export to image to the clone machine (machine B)
On �machine B� from the OK prompt, I boot from cdrom like
Ok boot cdrom - w
When prompt for a media type I entered �Network file System�
Unfortunately when �Machine B� finishes extracting the archive it panics.
�Machine B� was running fine before trying to �Web flash installation�
Can you help please?
Here is the error message
NFS moon:/free/puffin/puffin-20070704.flar
