To Modify the Boot Image
▼
1. Install the driver packages into the boot image.
The following example installs all packages previously downloaded into the
/<export_public> directory.
Note – Refer to the install_order file for the proper order in which to install the
packages. You must follow this order for a successful installation so the driver will
run.
/<export_public>
# cd
# pkgadd -R /<new_OS_copy_dir>/Boot -d .
2. Install any needed patches into the boot image.
The following example installs any patch(es) that were previously downloaded into
the /<export_public> directory. Repeat the patchadd command for all the patches
you need to add.
# cd
/<export_public>
# patchadd -C /<new_OS_copy_dir>/Boot -M /
3. Make sure the host name, its IP address, and its Ethernet address have been added
to the name service (/etc files, NIS, or NIS+).
4. Run the add_install_client(1M) command to add the host with the host
adapter as a boot/install client.
The example shows the add_install_client command followed by the name of
the host followed by its platform name.
# add_install_client <host_name> <platform_name>
Note – You can find the platform name by running the uname command with the
-m option on the host that has the host adapter.
5. Log out of the boot/install server.
<export_public> <patch_ID>
