Solaris 8 Advanced Installation Guide

Requirements

You must create a JumpStart directory on a diskette if a system is not connected to a network because the system does not have access to a profile server. The system on which you create a profile diskette must have a diskette drive, however.

Essential custom JumpStart files (the rules file, rules.ok file, and profiles) must be located in the root (/) directory on the profile diskette. Ensure that root owns the JumpStart directory and that its permissions are set to 755.
