Hi,
I was looking at sun website and sun managers FAQ's but wasn't able to find
anything regarding my issue. I was hoping someone could help me.
I created a flash archive and I have diskless client support enabled. Can I
use this flash archive to be able to boot diskless client? If so, any ideas
how? I don't think it is possible, but maybe someone knows some tricks.
The way I see of doing it, is extract the flash archive to miniroot
directory (/export/root/client_name) and try to boot it from it. Although I
was not able to find information of how to extract flash archive into
specific directory of already running system. Any input?
The other way, I was thinking of using ./add_install_client and specify
flash archive as installation media. (what are command options for it?) and
set bootparams as diskless client.
The other question is, if I use ./add_install_client and then manually
change bootparams to diskless, would I get any errors when I will be booting
it?
I will summarize it all.
Thanks for all the help or ideas in advance.
