That works. But Smilie the install still prompts me for information.

Here is my rules file:
Code:
hostname sys1    -       sys1.zfs       -

Here is my "profile" file (sys1.zfs):
Code:
install_type    initial_install
cluster         SUNWCall
pool            sys1 50G 4G auto c0t0d0s0
bootenv         installbe bename newBE

Here is my sysidcfg file:
Code:
keyboard=US-English
terminal=ansi
timeserver=localhost
network_interface=PRIMARY { hostname=sys1
     ip_address=nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
     netmask=255.255.255.0
     protocol_ipv6=no
     default_route=nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn }
security_policy=none
name_service=DNS { domain_name=mydomain.com
    name_server=nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
    search=mydomain.com }
timezone=US/Eastern
system_locale=en_US.ISO8859-15
root_password=<encrypted rootpw here>
nfs4_domain=dynamic
service_profile=limited_net
auto_reg=disable

Here is the command I used to setup the install client:
Code:
# ./add_install_client -e xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx -c nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn:/export/home/JUMPSTART \
                      -p  nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn:/export/home/JUMPSTART -s nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn:/mnt sys1 sun4v


I am trying to install Solaris 10u9(9/10). I thinking about trying 10u8 to see if that works better. Smilie
