Operating System Requirements

To run SunScreen SKIP, you must

1. Install the Solaris SunCore® software group.

   This software group contains the minimum software required to boot and run the Solaris operating environment. It includes some networking software and the drivers necessary to run the OpenWindows environment; it does not include the OpenWindows software.

2. Additionally, install the following packages:

   system	SUNWadmr	System & Network Administration Root
   system	SUNWcar	Core Architecture, (Root)
   system	SUNWcsd	Core Solaris Devices
   system	SUNWcsr	Core Solaris, (Root)
   system	SUNWcsu	Core Solaris, (Usr)
   system	SUNWdfb	Dumb Frame Buffer Device Drivers
   system	SUNWesu	Extended System Utilities
   system	SUNWkvm	Core Architecture, (Kvm)
   system	SUNWlibC	SPARCompilers Bundled libC
   system	SUNWlibms	SPARCompilers Bundled shared libm
   system	SUNWtoo	Programming Tools
   system	SUNWvolr	Volume Management, (Root)
   system	SUNWvolu	Volume Management, (Usr)

3. If you plan to use the skiptool GUI, install the packages for OpenWindows.

   • SUNWolrte

   • SUNWxwplt

   • SUNWolslb

4. If you are going to use certificates from a Certificate Authority, be aware that you must install the following operating system package:

   system SUNWscpu Source Compatibility, (Usr)

Otherwise the install_skip_keys command will fail.
