Installing the SunVideo Plus Software

The SunVideo Plus 1.3 software is provided on the CD included with your SunVideo Plus 1.3 installation kit.

  1. Log in superuser (root).

  2. Insert the SunVideo Plus 1.3 CD into the CD-ROM drive connected to your system.

    • If your system is running Volume Manager, it should automatically mount the CD-ROM to the /cdrom/sunvideo_plus_1_3 directory.

    • If your system is not running Volume Manager, mount the CD-ROM as follows:


      hostname# mkdir -p /cdrom/sunvideo_plus_1_3
hostname# mount -F hsfs -r /dev/dsk/c0t6d0s2 

/cdrom/sunvideo_plus_1_3

  3. Install the SunVideo Plus 1.3 software using the pkgadd command:

    1. Install the base software packages for the Solaris 2.5.1, Solaris 2.6, and Solaris 7 operating environments:


      hostname# cd /cdrom/sunvideo_plus_1_3/Common/Packages
hostname# /usr/sbin/pkgadd -d .

      Choose all to install the base packages.

    2. Proceed to install specific Solaris release software packages (Step b for Solaris 2.5.1, Step c for Solaris 2.6, and Step d for Solaris 7).

      • To install the Solaris 2.5.1 Hardware: 4/97, 8/97, and 11/97 operating environment, type:


        hostname# cd /cdrom/sunvideo_plus_1_3/Solaris_2.5.1/Packages
hostname# /usr/sbin/pkgadd -d .

Choose all.

Choose all.

Choose all.

  1. After the software has been installed, unmount and eject the CD-ROM:


    hostname# cd /
hostname# umount /cdrom/sunvideo_plus_1_3
hostname# eject cdrom

  2. Reboot your workstation:


    hostname# reboot -- -r

This enables the operating system to recognize the SunVideo Plus card.
