[Sunhelp] solaris net-install help

[Adrian Petrescu]

In order to use "boot net -install", you have to create an Solaris Install 
Server.

You can do this by installing Solaris 7 on either a SPARC or PC, using the 
adequate distribution (SPARC/x86). As far as I remember, you can use any of 
these platform to create Install Servers for both SPARC and x86 platforms.

Then you must follow the steps required to setup an Install Server, as 
described in your Solaris documentation (search http://docs.sun.com, if you 
don't have it)

I don't remember any other way to install Solaris on a SPARC. Maybe you can 
borrow an external SCSI CD-ROM. Also you can buy a SCSI CD-ROM for less than 
80 $, and this will save you a lot of pain and time.

Regards,
Adrian
