How to install solaris 8 with a nvidia M64 agp ?

Use kdmconfig. Make sure your running MU3 or greater because there are some patches
specific to the M64 cards that are needed to run in the hi res modes.

How to install Solaris 8 as the third OS?

Hi all
I'll appreciate anyone who could guide me how to install Solaris 8 in my PC which runs on an Intel Pentium III
Currently, I've installed Windows 2000 on the first partition, Red Hat 7.2 on the second partition. Only the first partition is primary, the second is logical partition. However, I don't use LILO as the boot manager. I use Window's boot manager instead.[I modified the boot.ini a little bit]
Now, I want to install Solaris 8 which can be installed on a Intel processor, on the third partition. However, I heard that it's very difficult to install Solaris so that I really need your advices from all of you. Thanks a million!
Best regards,

Hi,
I am also dealing with the same. For these three to sit, in your case, create a partition from fdisk of Linux which can be identified by solaris8. Then when you startoff installing solaris8, the OS should be in a position to capture that partion. If that won't happen, using Solaris8 fdisk is very dangerous. You can not preserve your old data. Try this way.

Go to Docs.Sun.Com and get the system's documentation. Also go get the OBP 3.x Command Reference manual while you are there. All you questions are answered in that documentation, except for those that are easily found with Google.

How to install Solaris 10 with Win XP on 2nd Hard Drive

hi everyone,
I'm totally new to Solaris. As an enthusiast, I wants to install Solaris 10 on my Win XP PC's 2nd Hard Drive(40GB, empty) from Solaris 10 DVD.
I need help from how to format 2nd Hard Drive to how can I configure the PC so it asks me which OS to load every time.
I will highly appreciate everyone's help as I've just joined SDN. Many Thanx in advance, Jags

Happened upon this post while searching for an answer to something else and figured I would give my 2 cents on what you are trying to do so as to offer you some other ideas, as in stuff I have done personally in similar situations, just in case the other suggestions don't work out (and to avoid repartitioning your main hdd if it is your ONLY computer with an OS you have available).
Assuming you have a standard tower or mid-tower with at least 1 free 5 1/4" bay open, and if your motherboard doesn't support booting from a slave drive, and if you prefer a hardware solution so your OS installs are isolated from each other to be certain no corruption happens, like I personally do*. Then you may consider a pair of key lock internal hard drive racks (newegg search "hard drive rack ide" or sata). You would need at least 1 free 5 1/4" bay for the rack mount, then place the hard drives in their housings, each set as master, and you can stick in which ever OS drive you want, turn the key, then boot up (I recommend storing drives not in use in some large anti-static bags for protection). If you have 2 open slots, like I did on my tower, then you can connect both to the same cable and leave both in at all times. Just make sure ONLY 1 drive is keyed "on" at a time, or else you will get errors due to duplicate masters set. Also make sure you ONLY turn the keys when the system is OFF, the racks do NOT make the drives hot-swappable, it is only to offer an easier solution for using multiple hard drives on one PC so you don't have to open the case all the time and potentially damage the pins or the drives when switching them out.. Also you may need longer cables depending on the motherboard controller placement and the size of your tower, 80 wire 40pin if you are dealing with IDE (when you get longer I've noticed less 80 wire and more slower 40 wire cables). As always when dealing with the actual hardware, be extra careful, make sure power is off and PC is unplugged, touch the PC power supply if you don't have better solutions such as anti-static mat/wrist band, etc. You probably know all of this, but just making sure.
*I lost a lot of data one of the first times I tried an open source OS many years ago (some Linux distro, I forget which), I tried to repartition my windows 98 drive, it worked fine for about a week booting between the two, then most my personal windows files suddenly were random sizes and random folders ended up full of garbage files with garbage file names among other peculiar things.. If I partition a drive I generally only do it BEFORE I put data on it or install OS's.. or at least make CERTAIN that I have adequate methods for restoring my OS and personal files (such as imaging my OS install to a larger drive temporarily, etc)..
Anyway, was just offering some possible alternatives to repartitioning your main OS drive.. -TCP

How to Install Solaris for Intel so that it boots off from a boot floppy?

Hi all,
Sorry to bother you with this one (I went through all documentations/manuals and could not find straight answers to following
specific questions):
I have one hard drive with 1st partition used by Windows XP and a second partition that's a blank FAT 32 (using Partition Magic)
I want to use for Solaris for Intel.
My very specific questions:
(1)That blank Fat32 partition: can I run the Solaris install over it ..or should I absolutely make sure that it's a blank UFS formatted
partition? I am asking you that because all manuals (except one) pretend that I can run my Solaris install on a blank Fat partition...
but I believe that documentation at multiboot.solaris-x86.org stresses that if the partition is not a blank UFS one, it wont install Solaris
(2)As you already know, some Oses like Linux or FreeBSD can be installed on a partition and be booted off a boot floppy.
So without that boot floppy, no trace of the OS. How can I do that with Solaris for Intel. I want my Solaris to boot off a boot floppy only.
BTW, I currently have Solaris 7 for Intel.
Thanks for the answers.

(1)That blank Fat32 partition: can I run the Solaris install over it ..or should I absolutely make sure that it's a blank UFS formatted You can install Solaris to that blank FAT32 drive but Solaris WILL convert it to UFS BEFORE doing the install. In other words, after the install it will be UFS and not FAT32 anymore.
So without that boot floppy, no trace of the OS. How can I do that with Solaris for Intel. I want my Solaris to boot off a boot floppy only.Not that I know of. Some people have reported booting Solaris off of a USB drive though.

How to install Solaris from a Windows computer

I have recently received the Solaris operating system on DVD. The only computer that I have that has a DVD player is my laptop. It is however connected to the desktop that I wold like to install the system onto by a switch. I am not sure how to go about installing solaris over the LAN onto the desktop. This is the current setup.
The desktop has Ubuntu with no direct connection to the internet. The Laptop has a wireless connection to the net with Internet connection sharing enabled. The two are connected via a switch and the laptop acts as a router to assign the ip address for the desktop. I would like to know how I can Install Solaris to the desktop over the network from the windows laptop.
Please help!
Thanks.

Yes it does. I did that before but I could never get the image to boot after recording it to cd.
Thanks for the reply by the way. I actually found some articles that I am reading through at:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-5504/6mkv4nh3p?a=view
This seems to be going in the right direction. My next question I guess will be how to boot the client from the network. I am not sure how to map the boot procedure to the server. Any ideas are welcome.

How to install solaris when having no physical access to the machine

Hi,
I administer a Dell PowerEdge 2950 server with Windows Server 2003. The machine is in a rack located in a datacenter which I do not have any physical access to.
As most of server's systems are working on the Java platform, I'm interested in migrating to Solaris 10, however, it is not clear for me how can I do that.
I have full access to several machines in the office where I work and they have varied OSes (windows, mac, solaris). It seems to me that those machines are in a different subnet than the server (subnet masks are not the same). Also their Ip addresses are given dinamically (DHCP) whist the server's address is fixed (static). Currently, I can use any of these machines to open a remote desktop session to the Dell server.
Can I install solaris on that server taking into account the facts mentioned above? If so, how? using a network-based installation?
As the driver for the RAID controller is not bundled with the installation media, would it be still possible to apply the driver before beginning the installation (option 5. Apply driver updates)?
Hope you can suggest me something or shed some light on this.
Thank you

if you have 2 servers next to each other at datacentre, get somebody there to drop a install dvd into server you want to install it
next wire serial cable from 1 server to the other soon to be solaris server
and that's as good as it gets

How to install Solaris 8 from Hard disk?

Hi.
Im downloading Solaris 8 from a free FTP server. Some body can explain me what i need to install Solaris 8 from my hard disk?

Well first if you are downloading the cd images to a non Solaris machine, they are ISO images that cd burning software and a cd burner will use to burn a bootable cd. After you create the cd's boot cd 1 of 2 and the install will begin. I read somewhere that if you download the images to a solaris machine you can mount the image as a CD and share it and then install directly from the image over a network. I am not too clear on exactly how that is done since I downloaded to W2K.

How to install Solaris 8 on IBM Thinkpad T20 laptop

Hello,
I would like to install Solaris 8 on my IBM Thinkpad T20 laptop and I am facing two kinds of problems:
-1- I cannot boot on the Matshushita DVDROM which is shipped with : i have got a boot panic ;
-2- My SAVAGE/IX 8MB Video Card is not recognised.
ANY HELP APPRECIATED
[email protected]

Hi There,
Although laptops are not officially supported, I am aware that another
customer managed to install their system over a network connection
due to local CDROM issues.
This may be something to try if you have access to another SOlaris System with a local CDROM.
As for the Video Card, I have not found any records of anyone
else attempting to use this particular chipset and so you may be
limited to just standard VGA in this case.

How to install PDF with XDB on APEX 4.2.2

Hi,
does anyone know a "how to install PDF Output" using XDB instead of Apache or APEX Listener on APEX 4.2.2 Please give me the link.
I tried to install APEX Listener but I always got errors so I came back to XDB. If there is an easy way to install the Listener please send me the link.
Thank you and best regards
Siegwin

i wrote an article about installing listener but then the latest version of listener at time was 1.x . check the following
Vishal's blog: Installing SSL enabled APEX 4.1 with development environment and APEX Listener on Weblogic and standalone
listener now is at 2.x and a few steps such as configuration of properties have changed. you no longer have to create users such as adminlistener and the listenerAdmin page isnt there anymore.
read the above and tell me the exact problem you have and i might help you better.
read Contents . this is oracle's documentation for listener configuration. this is good. let me know if you need some help in understanding some step in this
once listener is configured, configuring it for pdf download is very easy.
let me know if this answers your query in the current thread

AS10GR1(INF+BI) + AS10GR3 - how to install - probelm with deploying appl..

Hello :)
I've got following configuration:
MS W2003srv 2xXeon3.2GHz + 2GB RAM
iAS10GR1(9.0.4) - Infrstructure
and on the same machine
iAS10GR1(9.0.4) - BI (Reports and Discoverer)
Now I need to install iAS10GR3 (10.1.3) - because of Java 1.4.
How to do it in the fastest way and assume that I can't reinstall iAS10GR1.
When I install option with http server, opmn etc ...
I've tested single installation of iAS10GR3 and I can deploy and test my WebServices. When I install Release 3 on the same machine with Release1 everything is ok - I can deploy webservices but I can't test them.
I can prepare mesg to test via web page and in the invoking moment theres no action.
In apache log of R3 there's
10.10.1.18 - - [16/May/2006:17:18:51 +0200] "POST /WebServices/SRV_PLANY_ZAMOWIEN_STATUSSoapHttpPort HTTP/1.1" 500 5
What could suggests that there is a problem with apache configuration (in fact thera 3 instances of apaches)
However when I checked status of ports in every apache instance
opmn\bin\opmnctl status -l
I didn't notice that there's any ports conflicts - installer prepared ports quite pretty that they should coexists.
Any suggestions?
greets
Pepin

Hello :)
First, I noticed that I posted a mesg at Portal forum .. if a moderator would by nice - move this topic to proper forum, please.
And I configured succesfully ... however I made two things and I have to test it
one more time - I installed a patchset2 to iAS10GR1 to version 9.0.4.2
and I deinstall iAS10GR3 and choose an instaling option without http server.
Now I can deploy and test webservices and every previous functionality (reports and discoverer) works fine ...
