I want to say thanks to Mark and Clay for assisting me. My problem was the "Solaris 8 Software HW 5/03 1of 2 disk" I needed to also install the 2 of 2 disk. I just had a partial image. So to create an image from CD one needs Solaris 8 Software HW 5/03 1of 2 and Solaris 8 Software HW 5/03 2of 2 . When using/adding the second disk (2 of 2) the command. "add_to_install_server" is utilized. The Solaris 8 Installation CD is only needed if you plan on using Web Start installation. see chapter 12 of Advanced Installation Guide Solaris 8 http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-2411/6m8ou8s9f?a=view Thanks Al On 8/22/07, Al Saenz: Foundation Technologies < asaenz@found-tech.com> wrote: Dear Managers, I'm very close to getting my JS up and running. My image was created from the Solaris 8 Software HW 5/03 1of 2 disk. #pwd /cdrom/sol_8_hw503_sparc/s0/Solaris_8/Tools #./setup_install_server /mountpoint/d2 (no errors generated) I'm not sure if I need to use that disk (above) or the Solaris 8 Installation HW 5/03 disk Could this be my problem? It seems the client is looking to the cdrom for the OS image (below). Any pointers are welcomed, thanks. ###My Error### Sun Fire V100 (UltraSPARC-IIe 548MHz), No Keyboard OpenBoot 4.0, 2048 MB memory installed, Serial #66948589.
