10. After installing the Solaris operating environment, you will need to install the
GigabitEthernet software on the client system.
The software installed in Step 4 was required to boot the client system over the
GigabitEthernet interface. You now need to install the software in order for the
operating system to use the client's GigabitEthernet interfaces in normal operation.
Before installing the GigabitEthernet software, make sure that the client system does
not already have the software installed. Use the pkginfo command to see if the
GigabitEthernet software packages are installed on the client system.
# pkginfo | grep SUNWge
system SUNWged
system SUNWgedm
system SUNWgedu
If the software is installed (as shown in the example above), skip to Step 11.
If the software is not installed, install the software from Solaris Supplement CD.
Refer to the Solaris Sun Hardware Platform Guide for instructions on installing the
required software packages from the Solaris Supplement CD.
11. Confirm that the network host files have been configured correctly during the
Solaris installation.
Although the Solaris software installation creates the client's hostname.genumber
and hosts files, you may need to edit these files to match your specific networking
environment. See "Configuring the Network Host Files" on page 19 for more
information about editing these files.
