Solaris 9 (SPARC Platform Edition) Release Notes

Document Affected: re-preinstall(1M) Man Page

"Example 1: Installing the JumpStart Software" in the re-preinstall(1M) man page should read as follows.

The following procedure installs the JumpStart software on a system's own default boot disk:

  1. From the ok prompt, boot the system from the Solaris Media (DVD or 1 of 2 CD ) in single user mode:


    ok boot cdrom -s
    
  2. With the re-preinstall command, install the JumpStart software on the system's default boot disk, which is a slice on the disk (usually slice 0) where the system automatically boots. (The system's default boot disk is probably where the current root (/) file system is located, which can be determined with the format(1M) command.) For example, the following command installs the JumpStart software on the system's default boot disk, c0t3d0s0 on a Solaris 9 system.


    example# /usr/sbin/install.d/re-preinstall c0t3d0s0
    example#  sync ; sync ; sync ; reboot disk:b
