Solaris 9 Installation Guide

Installing Software With Web Start Installation Programs With Finish Scripts

You can use finish scripts to install additional software after the Solaris operating environment is installed. Some software programs are installed by the Solaris Web Start program, which prompts you to enter information during the installation. To maintain a hands-off installation, you can run the Solaris Web Start program with the -nodisplay or -noconsole options.

-nodisplay

-noconsole
