Hello Juergen, Unless you want to see German translated messages, you don't need to install Languages CD contents.
Simply you can login with a German language locale selected during GUI login (CDE or GDM2) and you will get German desktop where you can input and output German characters. If you wish to have German translations all around, then, you will have to install older versions of German localization packages in the previous build of Languages CD or from the latest SX DVD... For more details on the Languages CD, please also refer to the followings: http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=2163&tstart=105 and the following where you will find more info on why Languages CD image isn't available at the download site since build 54: http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=85272𔴘 I've also cc'd i18n-discuss and g11n-de-discuss mailing list for possible comment from other community members on this. BTW, I *think* you could download Solaris DVD image, lofiadm(1M) mount it, and use it with localeadm(1) to install entier German localization packages. The following email thread shows the steps if you'd like to do so: http://www.sunmanagers.org/pipermail/summaries/2006-March/007164.html Ienup Juergen Bornemann wrote at Feb 15, 2007 5:32 AM: > Hi, I downloaded the 6 Solaris Express CD´s snv57, > burned them and installed Solaris on my SPARC Ulra10. > After installing CD6 the system asked for a language > CD, which I don´t have.
