Hi Gents,

I have downloaded Sol 8 2/04 from Sun's web page and I have tried to install it into a V890. I can boot from a CD 1of 2 without any problem.
After the selection of the language and the Locale, the TWM (Sol Install Console window) cannot starts up. The following are the errors messages:

/usr/openwin/bin/xinit: Connection refused (errno 146): unable to connect to Xserver
/usr/openwin/bin/xinit: no such process (errno 3): Server error

I used the same CD 1of2 into the SunBlade and It worked without problem.
I used a Solaris 9 9/05 DVD into the V890 which came with it and It worked without problem.

Do you know why the downloaded soft cannot work properly on the V890?
This morning I have received an original Sol 8 2/04 DVD and have tried to install it and I got the same error message.

Can you help?

Your help will be very appreciated.

Thanks,
