Sundar and Jan:

I had gone through part of the instructions on a OpenSolaris 2008 0508 
Student pack x86 machine.

Besides what Jan had notice, I think we should add the following:

1. We should include example of how to run pfexec pkg install:

i.e:

-bash-3.2$ pfexec pkg install SUNWdhcs
DOWNLOAD                                    PKGS       FILES     XFER (MB)
Completed                                    1/1       22/22     0.58/0.58

PHASE                                        ACTIONS
Install Phase                                  46/46
PHASE                                          ITEMS
Reading Existing Index                           8/8
Indexing Packages                                1/1
-bash-3.2$

2.  Include the example of doing pkgadd of SUNWinstalladm-tools:

-bash-3.2$ cd /net/indiana-build.central/export/home/sundar/packages
-bash-3.2$  pfexec /usr/sbin/pkgadd -d `pwd` SUNWinstalladm-tools

Processing package instance <SUNWinstalladm-tools> from 
</net/indiana-build.central/export/home/sundar/packages>

3. The following typo should be fixed:

Instead of:

# /usr/apache/2.2/bin/apachectl -f 
/var/installadm/ai-webserver/ai-httpd.conf -k start


It should be:

ding at osol-inst:~# /usr/apache2/2.2/bin/apachectl -f 
/var/installadm/ai-webserver/ai-httpd.conf -k start
ding at osol-inst:~#


installadm had problems and I had filed the following bugs to track the 
issue:

3966 - installadm fails to start dhcp server manifest
3968 - installadm does not create directory

More will be done tomorrow.
