I am trying to setup a solaris x86 pxeboot enviroment at my work, but i am haveing quite a few problems...
I have got it to work, almost.. just need someone smart to help me out with the rest
as you can see in the attached image, it fails when it tries to contact the jumpstart server, due to that there aren't any network interface pressent.
but, as showed in the screenshot - there are one 'pcn0' and if i run a 'ifconfig -a dhcp' it get an ipaddress and i am able to continue the installation by running '/sbin/install-setup'
My qustion is..
Where in the x86.miniroot image - should i make changes, so it can execute theese commands by itself.
You aren't specifying an interface in your sysidcfg file are you?
I suppose I could post the macros to support my above post:
I don't think you'll need all those options, but, just to be complete...
I tried to get this as close as I could to your environment, but you'll have to double check everything I don't want to be responsible for mucking up your stuff. This is just what works for me.
If you have a multi-homed jumpstart server, and you aren't using the primary interface, you'll need to modify the add_install_client script and change this line:
SERVER=`uname -n`
To whatever your hostname on the interface is. I think you would have run into that issue already tho.

Hi all,
Now Sun provides a large range of x86 servers and Solaris is running fine on both x86/sparc.

Hi guys
I have a bunch of x4100's x4140's etc with solaris 10 update4 running on them but I suspect that when a lot of these boxes were originally built, the jumpstart process used an update2 miniroot, now as far as i understand it, the miniroot used at jumpstart is the miniroot that stays on... (1 Reply)
I'm aware of the linux-gate VDSO used to implement the sysenter mechanism for system calls. On older kernels this was mapped to a static location in the address space of each process. Newer kernels allow this to be dynamically located (though I don't think it's used by any distribution yet).
