I want to say thanks to Mark and Clay for assisting me.
My problem was the "Solaris 8 Software HW 5/03 1of 2 disk"
I needed to also install the 2 of 2 disk. I just had a partial image.
So to create an image from CD one needs Solaris 8 Software HW 5/03 1of 2 and
Solaris 8 Software HW 5/03 2of 2 . When using/adding the second disk (2 of 2)
the command. "add_to_install_server" is utilized.
The Solaris 8 Installation CD is only needed if you plan on using Web Start
installation.
see chapter 12 of Advanced Installation Guide Solaris 8

Thanks

Dear Managers,
I'm very close to getting my JS up and running.
My image was created from the Solaris 8 Software HW 5/03 1of 2 disk.
#pwd
/cdrom/sol_8_hw503_sparc/s0/Solaris_8/Tools
#./setup_install_server /mountpoint/d2
(no errors generated)
I'm not sure if I need to use that disk (above) or the Solaris 8 Installation
HW 5/03 disk
Could this be my problem? It seems the client is looking to the cdrom for the
OS image (below).
Any pointers are welcomed, thanks.
