Has anyone successful created the Solaris 9 4/03 CD-ROMs from the ISO images
on Sun's web site ? Whilst the CDs are created fine, the resulting CDs
end up being *very* slow - for example I've got a V100 here which was still
installing after 24 hours. I've tried various different things to try and
narrow down what the problem is, including:
o Different CD-R drives
o Different systems to burn the CD-Rs
o Different brands of CD-R media, including some of the better brands of
CD-R media
o Ensuring that the V100 in question didn't have a problem - it didn't as
I could fully install from a set of Solaris 9 12/02 CD-Rs within a couple
of hours as I'd expect.
o Ensuring that the copy of the ISO images downloaded was correct - ie
downloading from several machines and comparing checksums.
The only thing left in the above is the ISO images being corrupt in some
strange way; its interesting to note that the CD-ROM drive in the V100 isn't
working flat out either, its doing the occasional read rather than the sort
of continuous reading I'd expect.
Any comments on this ?
