Install the Trusted Solaris Software

Installing Trusted Solaris can be done interactively using CD-ROMs, over the network, or with Custom JumpStart^TM scripts. The first three workstations, the name service master (NIS or NIS+) , the home directory server, and the install server (if you wish to do network or Custom JumpStart installs), must be installed from the CD-ROM. Subsequent workstations can be installed using the server.

Installing over the network requires network setup. The installation program prompts the install team for needed information. Using Custom JumpStart requires some knowledge of Bourne shell scripting to automate installation. However, you can write scripts where no human interaction with the installation program is required.

For security reasons, the installation program does not offer some of the options that are available for Solaris 8 software. See "Differences from Solaris 8 Installation and Configuration" for details.
