Error on installing locale
Hi guys,

I'm installing locale (en_US.UTF-8) from solaris 10 DVD as follows in a non-global zone:


localeadm -a nam -d /cdrom/sol_10_807_sparc/s0/Solaris_10/Product

It does install some packages and then prompts :

No solaris3 image has been found in
/cdrom/sol_10_807_sparc/s0/Solaris_10/Product
Please enter the path to this image/disk, or enter 'q' to quit:
(if this image is on CD-ROM, please mount the disk and give the path to the CD-ROM drive e.g. /cdrom/cdrom0)

But i dont know which DVD to insert because i have only one.

I select quit and then type locale -a:

# locale -a
C
POSIX
en_AU.ISO8859-1
en_AU.UTF-8
en_CA
en_CA.ISO8859-1
en_CA.UTF-8
en_NZ.ISO8859-1
en_NZ.UTF-8
en_US
en_US.ISO8859-1
en_US.ISO8859-15
en_US.ISO8859-15@euro
en_US.UTF-8
es
es_MX
es_MX.ISO8859-1
fr
fr_CA
fr_CA.ISO8859-1
iso_8859_1

Then i set LANG and LC_ALL variables for a user and i get the error:
couldn't set locale correctly

Please advise how to correct this.

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       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:

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       For x86 machines:

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.

       install-solaris	exists	only  on  the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should be invoked only from there. Refer to the  for more
       details.
