How to Install the System Device Driver Using a Network Share or USB Device

If your server is not equipped with an SP, you can install device drivers from a shared network location or from a locally attached USB device.

Before You Begin

Obtain a sx86.zip file from the download site:

http://wikis.sun.com/display/SystemsComm/Sun+Fire+X2270+M2+Server

  1. Download and unzip the contents of the sx86.zip file to a USB flash device or shared network location that is accessible during the installation.

  2. Change to the mounted USB device or shared network location by typing the following command:

    # cd <mount_point>

  3. Run the install script by typing the following command:

    # sh install.sh

    The system device driver(s) are now installed. The script prompts you to reboot the system for changes to take effect.

  4. Reboot your server.
