Solaris installation
I have downloaded Solaris. But I can't install it on my 64 bit PC.
It is fraught with installation problems. I gave it up. I know it will work on SUN Sparc computer. However, it is beyond my budget. Did you install it successfully on an ordinary PC? |

Thanks everybody for the replies.
What is the version number of Solaris you manage to install? I failed with the following program: sol_10_606_x86 I have the above on a DVD. It is a bootable DVD. I downloaded, compressed and concatenated as suggested by the Sun's website. It boots fine. However, in the process of installation I had severe problems and forced to give it up. I would like to know whether you managed to install the above version or some other old version. I downloaded it October 2006. I tried to install it several times and gave up. I would like to hear from you all again. |

All of them, including Solaris Express builds.

How did it failed ? On what hardware did you try to install ? Did you check if it is supported before using the SDD tool ? Quote:

Thanks Jlliagre for taking time to reply me.
Today I downloaded the latest version. I still didn't find time to decompress/concatenate. I will do it soon. I am glad you are all behind me for the installation. I will make another attempt as you will help me. Please do keep a good watch on this thread. I am very busy with so many other things at the moment of writing. I will try to install within next 48 hours. Do you want me to try with the latest version? I will accept your suggestion. By the way, what is the SDD tool? |
