To access the diagnostic partition on the Solaris 10 Operating System (OS), follow these steps:
# ls /diagpart
If this command fails to list the log files created by the Pc-Check diagnostics utility, then the OS has never been configured to mount the diagnostic partition. Continue to Step 5.
If this command succeeds in listing the log files created by the Pc-Check diagnostics utility, the OS has already been configured to mount the diagnostic partition. All users have read access to this partition. Only the superuser has read/write access to this partition. You have completed this procedure. Do not proceed with the following steps.
# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/drivers/sx86
# ./install.sh
The following lines appear if the diagnostic partition is mounted successfully:
