Solaris 9 9/04 Installation Guide

Create the WAN Boot Miniroot

Use the setup_install_server(1M) with the -w option to copy the WAN boot miniroot and the Solaris software image to the /export/install/Solaris_9 directory of wanserver-1.

Insert the Solaris Software media in the media drive that is attached to wanserver-1. Type the following commands.


wanserver-1# mkdir -p /export/install/sol_9_sparc
wanserver-1# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/s0/Solaris_9/Tools
wanserver-1# ./setup_install_server -w /export/install/sol_9_sparc/miniroot \
  /export/install/sol_9_sparc

Move the WAN boot miniroot to the document root directory (/opt/apache/htdocs/) of the WAN boot server.


wanserver-1# mv /export/install/sol_9_sparc/miniroot/miniroot \
  /opt/apache/htdocs/miniroot/miniroot.s9_sparc
