Hello,
I'm giving a try to opensolaris. So I've downloaded the 6 iso images.
For Convenience, instead of burning all the CDs, I've just burn the
first one and try to make an solaris *repository* on my linux box.
This solaris'repository was made by successively copying the 6 iso
images (whom was mount like: mount -t iso9660 -o loop) into one directory.
#/bin/bash
#/media/opensolaris-11/57/* holds all the mount -t iso9660 -o loop
for file in /media/opensolaris-11/57/* ;
cp -dR file ./
find ./ ! -perm /u=w -ls -exec chmod u+w {} \;
done
And now, I'm in a state where the opensolaris installation ask me for:
[ ] CD/DVD
[x] Network File System
after choosing NFS, it asks me for the NFS location:
<nfs_server>:/path_to_Solaris_11/
but it keeps on telling me :``ERROR: The directory you specified does
not contain a valid Solaris OS Image''
I've mounted it successfully from a terminal in the opensolaris
installation, just to check if my <nfs_server>:/path_to_Solaris_11 whas
working.... and it works
if I do a ``ls -1'' of what is under ../Solaris_11
