SUMMARY2: Mounting ISO Images?

Scott Mickey sent me a link to http://bolthole.com/solaris/ which
describes how to mount both the install and the boot slice. This is
exactly what I was looking for.

I've used these instructions sucessfully with setup_install_server to
build a new Jumpstart off the ISO images.

Thanks again to all!
