7.3.7 Setting Up an Install Server
7.3.7.3 Server at 2.X
First mount the CDROM:
# mkdir /cdrom
# mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t6d0s0 /cdrom
You then use the Host Manager to introduce the client machine to the server. Entries that you'll add for the client with Host Manager include:
- Hostname
- IP address
- Ethernet address
- Type: standalone, diskless, or dataless
- Time zone region and time zone
- Remote or local (CDROM) installation for the client
- Media server for remote installation (machine with the CDROM)
- OS release to install from the remote server (Sun4c/Sun4m/Sun4u)
You then need to update the NIS(+) maps and you're ready to go.
