There is no menu.lst. The boot loader was written in-house (not my choice), and I believe it is loosely based on Syslinux. However, the boot loader is calling up the inetboot from the Solaris 10 ISO should be passing it multiple values, including install_media, install_config, etc... Here is the relevant portion of the boot options... append: multiboot-solaris-10u7-x86 kernel/unix -B install_media=$ip_addr:$dir,install_config=$ip_addr:$dir,sysid_config=$ip_addr:$dir,install_boot=$ip_addr:$dir - install nowin --- x86.miniroot multiboot-solaris-10u7-x86 is the inetboot file from the s10u7 ISO. $ip_addr is the IP address to the install server and $dir is the NFS exported directory to look in. The portion When the OS errors and I run /sbin/getbootargs, all I see is '- install nowin'. So, it doesn't display all the -B boot args. Therefore, I am assuming that the -B boot args should get passed to inetboot and ignore everything following the first '-'. Is this a correct assumption and if so, how do I determine if the inetboot is really interpreting those? Am I on the right trail or am I completely off base here? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
