Since this is about migrating from JumpStart to AI, I started with the assumptions that readers already know how to use JumpStart, are less familiar with AI, and want to know more about AI using JumpStart as a guide. > Installation configurations: The reference to XML in > "Automated > Installer uses XML AI manifest files" seems to be a > bit wordy at this > stage.

I believe installing additional SVR4 packages from the Solaris DVD using JumpStart also is trivial. The difference between JumpStart and AI that I was hoping to describe here is how to install apps that are not on the Solaris DVD or not in an IPS repo. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ caiman-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/caiman-discuss
