Trusted Solaris 8 HW 7/03 Release Notes

x86: Sun Fire V60x and V65x and the DCA Diskette (4920740)

Neither the Device Configuration Assistant (DCA) diskette nor the CD-ROM can boot a Sun Fire V60x or a Sun Fire V65x system. For installation issues, see the preceding section.

Workaround: If your hard drive becomes corrupted or is overwritten, use the Solaris 9 8/03 DCA diskette. This diskette supports the Sun Fire V60x and V65x platforms. If you do not have a DCA diskette for the Solaris 9 8/03 release, download the software from the Sun web site. Follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Sun BigAdminSM web site at http://www.sun.com/bigadmin.

  2. Select HCL from the left-hand column.

  3. Select Solaris x86 Device Configuration Assistant 1.1. Then, follow the directions to download the DCA software to a diskette.

  4. Use the DCA diskette to boot the Sun Fire V60x and Sun Fire V65x systems.
