2. Find the root directory of the client system.
The client system's root directory can be found in the install server's
/etc/bootparams file. Use the grep command to search this file for the root
directory.
# grep client_name /etc/bootparams
client_name root=server_name:/netinstall/Solaris_2.7/Tools/Boot
install=server_name:/netinstall boottype=:in rootopts=:rsize=32768
In the example above, the root directory for the Solaris 7 client is /netinstall. In
Step 4, you would replace root_directory with /netinstall.
Note – If the root directory is not found in the /etc/bootparams file, refer to the
Solaris Advanced Installation Guide for configuration instructions.
3. Insert the Solaris Supplement CD in the install server's CD-ROM drive.
The CD should automatically mount to the /cdrom/cdrom0 directory. If the CD did
not get mounted to this directory, refer to the Solaris Supplement Sun Hardware
Platform Guide for mounting instructions.
4. On the install server, install the GigabitEthernet software to the client's root
directory.
Replace root_directory with the location of the client's root directory.
# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/Product
# ls SUNWge*
SUNWged SUNWgedm
# pkgadd -R root_directory/Solaris_2.7/Tools/Boot -d . SUNWged SUNWgedm SUNWgedu
# cd /
Note – The directory paths for these files may change in future operating system
releases. If the commands above do not work correctly, refer to the documentation
that shipped with your version of the operating system.
5. Eject the Solaris Supplement CD from the CD-ROM drive.
