Hi Janie,

The compression type is set in the <boot_archive> section under the
tag <compression type="XXXXX">.  Around line 162 in your manifest file.

Just curious, is this manifest based on one from an older build? I compared yours with the AI sparc image manifest delivered in build 150, it seems quiet different.
Since we change things in the manifests from time to time, it is best to
get a fresh copy of the manifest from a particular build and make your customization.

As for your other confusion point below, lzma is used for compressing the solaris.zlib and
solarismisc.zlib on both x86 and sparc.
dcfs is used for compressing the boot archive for sparc, and gzip is used
for compressing the x86 boot archive.

Thanks,

--Karen

...when using DC to build an AI ISO image. The pkgs I am using to build the image are based on nv_150. The machine I'm running the build command on is running nv_150 and the distribution-constructor pkg on the machine is also at version nv_150 ([email protected],5.11-0.150).

DC manifest:

Can someone help me resolve this? I see from looking at boot_archive_archive.py that the compression type should be dcfs but I'm not sure where that's set. Also, my last successful AI ISO creation which was based on nv_148 shows the compression type was "lzma", quite confusing.

Thanks,
Janie
