NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       tures available.
