Hi all,
I'm in the process of creating a Solaris package designed to install in
a sparse-root zone. Solaris sparse-root zones mount /usr/* read only,
so the package can't put files in /usr at all. My first instinct is to
use a file-layout which puts *everything* amanda installs in
/opt/amanda/. That mean we would have something like:
/opt/amanda/bin
/opt/amanda/sbin
/opt/amanda/lib/amanda
/opt/amanda/var/lib/
/opt/amanda/etc/
/opt/amanda/share
I'm really not a Solaris admin, so I don't the have experience to know
The Right Way to do a sparse-root install.
I'd like some input from any Solaris admins or users that either know,
or have (non-local-config-dependent) ideas.
The source will end up in amanda's SourceForge repository, and the
binary package will be on download.zmanda.com.
Thanks for any help!
