Solaris 10 6/06 Installation Guide: Custom JumpStart and Advanced Installations

ProcedureLocating the GRUB Menu's menu.lst File When a Solaris Live Upgrade Boot Environment is Mounted

In the following procedure, the system contains two operating systems: Solaris and a Solaris Live Upgrade boot environment, second_disk. The second_disk boot environment has been booted. The Solaris boot environment contains the GRUB menu. The Solaris boot environment is mounted at /.alt.Solaris.

Steps

  1. Become superuser or assume an equivalent role.

    Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Configuring RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services.

  2. To locate the menu.lst file, type:


    # /sbin/bootadm list-menu

    The location and contents of the file are displayed.


    The location for the active GRUB menu is:
/.alt.Solaris/boot/grub/menu.lst
default 0
timeout 10
0 Solaris
1 Solaris failsafe
2 second_disk
3 second_disk failsafe

    Since the boot environment containing the GRUB menu is already mounted, then you can access the menu.lst file at /.alt.Solaris/boot/grub/menu.lst.
