Problem with solaris 10 installation package
Hi,
I want to install man pages package from solaris 10. Solaris 10 has already been installed on my servor but I have to add the man pages packages. I search for a long time on internet this package but I didn't find a compatible one... So I downloaded Solaris 10 from Sun site to get this package... I did an .iso to get the dvd content but I don't know how to install Just this package. I supposed I have to install SUNWman... I hope someone has an idea... Regards, George |

First check that documentation is not installed using pkgchk -l SUNWman
If not installed, use pkgadd SUNWman to install it. You will need to know the location of the package on the dvd or other media. |

Thank you for your reply, I tried "pkgchk -l SUNWman" but I obtain "WARNING: no pathnames were associated with <SUNWman>" so I supposed that it was not installed...
Then I tried pkgadd -d SUNWman but I don't have the good file to do that (something looks like a package)... When I downloaded Solaris 10, I had two "files" (dvd A & dvd B). I did cat file1 + file2 > filename.iso and now I can open the solaris file but inside I don't find an explicit file which allows SUNWman installation. I have an SUNWman file inside the "Product" file but when I opened it I didn't find something seems to be a package... Any ideas? |

The 2 packages that you need are SUNWdocs and SUNWman.
They can be located in the cdrom inside the Products directory. # cdrom/cdrom0/s0/Solaris_10/Product |

Ok for this directory : # cdrom/cdrom0/s0/Solaris_10/Product.
But what is the next step? How can I install them... When I'm inside SUNWdoc and SUNWman folders, I didn't find something looks like a package... There are three folders : "archive", "install" (which contains copyright, depend and i.none files) and "reloc" what can I do with them ? |

A stupid question... (one more
I have my ISO file (sol-10-GA-sp-dvd.iso) located on my servor at *./packages/ How can I open it with Unix ? Because until now, I opened it with MagicISO and I extracted only SUNWman and SUNWdoc... In this way, I've got this message : "pkgadd: ERROR: no packages were found in </packages/SUNWman>" Thanks for your help !! |
