[i]transfer that installation to multiple machines? If so, read up on Flash archives: (http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2397/flash-24?l=en&a=view&q=flash). This technology in Solaris/OpenSolaris allows you to perform an install and then create an archive that you can deploy to other machines (of the same architecture type). This seems a better fit for what you're trying to do (if I understand you correctly).[/i] Yes, you did. I still think it will be kind of a put-off - aside from the great way to deploy software, which I adore - to the general public. Imagine the mainboard of Joe User (me) dies, and I buy a new one. That requires me to reinstall? That's almost worse than 'Product Activation'. I am sure that there is a better, engineering, solution to it. Finally, the installer also finds whatever it needs. Is is asked too much to include a hook that allows the user to make the system detect the hardware another time? 2 sen This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list [email protected]
