Trusted Solaris Installation and Configuration

Copy JumpStart Files to jumpstart_dir_path

  1. As root, at label admin_low, launch a terminal and change to the JumpStart directory.

    If the jumpstart_dir_path is on a diskette, you must allocate the device first. See "How to Create a JumpStart Directory on a Diskette" for the procedure.


    # cd jumpstart_dir_path
    
  2. If you are using a working directory rather than the jumpstart_dir_path to create custom JumpStart files, copy them to jumpstart_dir_path.

    All of your profiles, the rules file, the rules.ok file, and the finish script (finish.sh) should be copied to jumpstart_dir_path.

    For example, the following commands copy the contents of the working directory /export/tmp. All custom JumpStart profiles have followed a convention of using "profile" as the last part of the file name.


    # cd /export/tmp
    # cp finish.sh *profile* rules rules.ok jumpstart_dir_path
    
  3. Check file permissions.

  4. As root, at label admin_low, deallocate the diskette drive if the jumpstart_dir_path is on a diskette.

    Result: The custom JumpStart files are available to the installation program.
