The Solaris Installation Program on the Solaris 10 OS DVD can be run with a graphical user interface (GUI) or as an interactive text installer in a remote console. The Solaris Device Configuration Assistant is included in the Solaris Installation Program.
Follow the instructions for x86-based systems, not SPARC-based systems. For more information, see the Solaris 10 Release and Installation Collection for the version of the Solaris 10 Operating System you have installed. Documentation is available at:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris/documentation/index-jsp-135724.html
After you configure the preinstalled Solaris OS, the Solaris Installation Program reboots the system and prompts you to log in.
