U2 Creator hangs while attempting a Solaris 2.6 install
2007-12-24 20:37:00
We didn't have this problem installing Solaris 8 on this box. I have
looked for similar items in the Archives, and only found one item close
that summarized the question with another question, so I will ask mine
here.
We need to set up a U2 Creator to run an app that is certified for
Solaris 2.6 only. This particular machine has two internal 18 GB
drives target 0 and 1, and an internal Sun 4X CDROM drive, ID 6.
This machine used to be a NFS server running Solaris 8 (still has 8 on
the HDDS, until we can get Sol 6 installed, anyway).
When we insert the CDROM and type 'boot cdrom' at the OK> prompt, the
machine posts the system information and the disk it is loading from
then hangs at the 'spinning hash mark'. We have tried using an old
external Sun CDROM, and even tried typing in the path with no luck.
What am I not doing? Thanks for any information.
