I would take a look at the following doc that is on Sun's web site
Solaris 10 Installation Guide: Custom JumpStart and Advanced Installations http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-5506 That should contain all the info you need. On 11/12/06, Tao Chen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I think "on the same subnet" just means you don't need a boot server. http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-5776/6n7r9js3j?a=view Anyway, I have notes and scripts to do net_install for x86. I used to net_install SPARC box also when I had one, but had lost those SPARC specific arguments for the same commands. It breaks down to the following steps. (in sample commands, my install server's IP is 10.0.0.2) 0. Optional: reset services/cleanup settings if previous setup failed. Inc. removing tftp, dhcp, dns shares etc. 1. Mount DVD/CD image and setup install server. lofiadm -a [iso_file] mount -F hsfs [lofi_dev] /xxx /xxx/Solaris_*/Tools/setup_install_server (add_to_install_server) 2. Setup DHCP service. dhcpconfig -Uhx dhcpconfig -D -r SUNWfiles -p /var/dhcp dhcpconfig -N 10.0.0.0 -t 10.0.0.1 -m 255.255.255.0 3. Add macro definition to DHCP configuration table. For x86 with PXE: add_install_client -d i86pc i86pc dhtadm -A -m PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001 -d':BootSrvA=10.0.0.2:BootFile="PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001":' 4. Add individual client. e.g. add x86 client 'w2100z/10.0.0.7' with mac address 00:0a:e4:29:bf:b6 : pntadm -A 10.0.0.7 -h w2100z -m 10.0.0.0 -y -i 000AE429BFB6 10.0.0.0 add_install_client -d -e "00:0a:e4:29:bf:b6" i86pc dhtadm -A -m 01000AE429BFB6 -d':BootSrvA=10.0.0.2:BootFile=01000AE429BFB6:' 5. Enable all necessary services and verify they're setup correctly. svcadm restart dhcp-server svcadm restart nfs/server dhtadm -P ls /tftpboot svcs | grep tftp mount | grep tftp etc. You will use different arguments for the same commands in step 3-4 for T2000. See if this doc helps: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-5776/6n7r9js3o?a=view#netinstalldvd-ex-15 Besides Sun's document, there're other resources on the web for this topic, use google, but I had hard time following them when I first tried time. Although not for T2000, I hope this breakdown help you a little bit. Tao _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list [email protected]
