we also got a new box(v440)...It also arrived pre-installed.
Since the box isn't ready for production, I initiated a new install of solaris 10.
I wanted to change the layout and found that my biggest problem w/the terminal.
I initially used an HPconsole, and after trying several different terminal settings (wyse,hpterm,vt100) I gave up and found an old vt100 term sitting around (old sequent system).
I'll get back to the install on Monday, but I have a few questions:
I was only able to make 7 (i think) filesystems, I guess they have a maximum number during the install?
I initiated the install from the {go} prompt, "boot cdrom"...but to be honest, I'm not sure how I got the prompt to begin with?
Since I am planning on doing a few more of these, what is the preferred way to initiate an install from a cd/dvd?
thanks
maybe sun stock will go up, with all these sunbox purchases
