Download size of Solaris 10 x86 DVD ?

Hi !
The last time I was here to download Sun Solaris 10, I was set back by the size of the download/time for that.
If I do remember correctly it had 2 main image files each over 1 GB and 2 other add on files, summing over 4 GB.
At that time I didn't had that much of bandwidth and also time.
But now I see only 1 file (sol-10-u5-ga-x86-dvd.iso) of 2+ GB size.
Am I downloading the full image file for x86 architecture ?
I wanna download the complete image file as I'll use it for local intranet machine having no internet connection.
Thanks In Advance !

My 10u5 is is 2259353600 bytes.

  • Re-read disk size in Solaris 10 x86 / VMware

    Hi
    Using
    # uname -a
    SunOS host1 5.10 Generic_142910-17 i86pc i386 i86pc
    We have a 30G virtual disk, on top of which a UFS filesystem is living, mounted, and used.
    The Virtual disk has been resized to 40G.
    I know I need to change the fdisk partition size, after which i can change the  "format" partition size, then use growfs.
    But I don't know how to get S10 to recognise the new size for the disk.
    fdisk tells me
    Total disk size is 3916 cylinders
    Cylinder size is 16065 (512 byte) blocks

  • Solaris 10 x86 5/08 : Boot from DVD gives 'grub ' and no menu

    Hi All,
    I just spent a good deal of time downloading the Solaris 10 5/08 x86 DVD images. When I try to boot from disc 'A', I merely get a 'grub>' prompt.
    From all I can tell due to searching, this is not right.
    Any advice? :(

  • Solaris 10 10/08 x86 DVD will not boot, workaround inc.

    hi,
    Downloaded the Solaris 10 10/08 x86 DVD. It will not boot up at all with the 2 Gigabyte boards I have tryed it with. GA-G33-DS3R and GA-N650SLI-DS4L I downloaded the ISO twice and checked the checksum. Burnt the DVD 4 times! The DVD works fine with my Eee PC 900 over usb. Booting the 2 gigabyte board over usb works a bit better, they get to GRUB but they still dont work correctly.
    I am using IDE DVD drives with the 2 gigabyte boards. I have never had a problem like his before with my hardware. Been experimenting with lots of diffrent Linux distro's recently and they all booted fine from DVD's I have burnt from downloaded ISO's.
    I have tryed the CD install disks, CD1 boots up and start the install OK, but would not finish corrctly for me. Some other problem am not going into.....
    The DVD workaround I am using.
    Boot up the system with am old Solaris DVD.
    At the very first menu, press an arrow key to stop the 6 second timer.
    Remove the old Solaris DVD and replace it with the new Solaris 10 10/08 DVD.
    Wait a few seconds and select Solaris from the menu.
    The install program will now continue with the new DVD. If you dont have am old solaris DVD, you could try downloading CD1 and booting that then swapping it out fot the new DVD. Not tryed this myself.

  • Where to download the Enterprise-R5-x86-dvd.iso

    I have went to the Oracle E-delivery site to download Oracle EL 4 and 5 but never see an option to download a dvd iso, just 4-5 iso for cds when I try to mount disk1.iso via the instruction it errors not able to find a particular directory. The example uses the Enterprise-R5-x86-dvd.iso as an example. Does anyone know where i can download this?
    BTW, the error i get when running virt-install is:

    MrOracleDude,
    Did u intend to create a vm by manager with a oel4 or oel5 iso? In that case,there may 2 workarounds for u if you've not got a dvd iso,
    1.Simply extract all of the contents from cd1-cd5 to a given directory,next,export that directory by a nfs/http service to support a pvm installation.
    2.As dyno commented,burn these several CDs to a dvd manually,here I just recommend following scripts for u as a cd2dvd tool(help to create a bootable DVD iso of a Oralce Enterprise Linux or Redhat Linux). you could simply copy/paste these free codes,then save as cd2dvd.sh,what's more,it is pretty easy to use,plz enjoy:)

  • Swap size keeps dropping on Solaris 10 (x86)

    Hi,
    I have setup Solaris 10 (x86) on a SunFire V20Z, and mirrored my 2 hds.
    raidctl c1t0d0 c1t1d0
    recently i have been getting system messages that says
    WARNING: /tmp: File system full, swap space limit exceeded
    when i checked, I noticed that my swap size has dropped. I had setup c1t0d0s1 for swap (2GB).
    When i reboot, the system will show the swap as correct, but it will start dropping over a period of time
    bash-3.00# swap -l
    swapfile dev swaplo blocks free
    /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s1 28,65 8 4193272 4193272
    bash-3.00# swap -s
    total: 565248k bytes allocated + 933124k reserved = 1498372k used, 2280600k available
    The next day when i check again;
    -bash-3.00$ swap -l
    swapfile dev swaplo blocks free
    /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s1 28,65 8 4193272 4193272
    -bash-3.00$ swap -s
    total: 1344296k bytes allocated + 1676016k reserved = 3020312k used, 642752k available
    I have just rebooted my system again because my /tmp has dropped to 8.3MB
    swap 8.3MB 4.0K 8.3MB 1% /tmp
    My /tmp mount in vfstab shows;
    swap - /tmp tmpfs - yes -
    Any help?

    Well, /tmp and swap are tightly connected to eachother, since its basicly the same thing.
    Hence, when you allocate space in /tmp, the amount of available swap will drop, in the same way the amount of space available in /tmp will drop if a lot of swap has been allocated by processes running on the system.
    swap -s will show you the amount of unallocated (or free) swap, that it shrinks over time is perfectly normal on most systems, however its not really normal that applications allocates that much swap on a short time.
    I suspect that you have an application running on your system which is eating a lot of memory and hence using up your swap space, so next time this problem occour, i'ld run the following;
    prstat -a -s size
    This will give a list of processes running on the system, and sort them by how much virtual memory they have allocated.
    Funny thing; i tested the command above on a S10 server, and found that nfsmapid had allocated about 400 mb. And i'm not even using NFSv4.. smells memory leak.
    Hope this explaination is somewhat clear ;)

  • How to increase the size of /opt solaris 10 x86

    Solaris 10 X86, /opt runs out space, would anyone please tell me how to increase the size of /opt?
    The Solaris is installed on the whole disk, and I believe there are still some free hard disk space available somewhere.
    I need step by step guidance please.
    thanks.

    Hi
    Looks like you have installed your Solaris 10 on traditional UFS disk partitions and not using the ZFS whole disk. If so then you need to resize de underlying partition using the format command and then run the growfs to resize the /opt.

  • Solaris 8 x86 w/ Seagate 410800N Drive - Size Detection Problem

    I have a Dual PII-300Mhz computer w/ 786MB memory and a 4.5GB Wide Scsi (Seagate) and an 8.1GB Narrow Scsi (Seagate - 410800N) configuration.
    I have installed Solaris 8 x86 and applied the "recommended patches". The system is working great EXCEPT for when I attempt to format the ST410800N hard drive.
    The # of cylinders is suppose to be 4925, heads 27, sectors per track 133, etc...
    Solaris is detecting only ~467 cylinders and 26 heads. I've tried to change the "TYPE" to one that I created and it seems to work for a few menu selections, but then when I try to partition the drive, it shows only ~467-470 cylinders. It shows 9 slices and only allows me modify up to #7. The SCSI ID for the drive is 4, which I'm not sure if this is something that Solaris is reserving for a Tape drive. I can change it to 1 or 2.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am new to using Solaris, but I'm enjoying it alot. I just would like to get this drive partitioned so that I can move "home" and to install Oracle 8.x
    Thanks,
    George

    Thanks for all of the helpful responses. I figured out the problem.

  • Solaris 10 x86 Installation Fails to Start

    I am trying to install Solaris 10 x86 05/08 on a Sony PCG-K115S laptop. The issue I am having is that the installation hangs after printing the copyright information and does not go any further. I get no error message or status as to what the installation is doing.
    I downloaded the dvd iso from sun website and verified the md5 checksum before burning the dvd more than once but the issue occurred in both dvds.
    The laptop currently has XP installed but there is 30GB of free unallocated/partitioned space on the disk.
    Are there any options I can active to debug the installation and see where and why it is stalling.
    Thank you,
    F.
    Edit 1:
    After some forum reading I activated the Kernel Debugger and verbose mode:
    The installation hangs after this line is printed out:
    echi0 is /pci@0,0/pci104d,8175@c,2
    loaded modules: [uppc neti ufs unix krtld uhci hook genunix ip usba specfs pcplusmp cpu.generic sctp arp]
    Does this strike a cord with anybody??
    Edit 2:
    After some more reading and investigation, I read that this could be caused by my USB controller not being recognoized or some USB 2.0 issues with Solaris 10.
    I have tried to deactive the usb system with the options "-B acpi_user_options=2" and "-B acpi_user_options=8" but with no luck. (I got about these on some some forum, not sure if they are correct).
    Any help is appreciated!!
    Thank you,

    So with options "-k -v -B acpi-user-options=0x8 -B install_media=cdrom" I get the install menu

    On selecting "1" for interactive, the install begins be halts quickly with an error:

       Exiting to shell.Is there any way to disable the configuration of the network interfaces?? I don't need them for installation...

  • Solaris 10 X86 Installation Struck after Loading Grub Stage 2

    Can some one help me on this, I tried in Google and other sun solve support forums but didnt find anything helpfull.
    Anybodys help is much appreciated..
    Regards, Sundar

    I'm getting the same thing with Solaris 10u8 in a VirtualBox. sol-10-u8-ga-x86-dvd.iso downloaded from cds.sun.com today.
    (I tried the pre-made VirtualBox image Sun provides, and it's horribly dysfunctional. So I thought I'd try a fresh installation. More fool me, apparently.)
    Edit: No, it's me. The problem is that the ISO I downloaded was incomplete - it cut off at precisely 2GB! The md5sum of what I downloaded is ea5a8606894d253e286861aaf4b5c50a; the official md5sum should be 9df7fd02d82976fd3ec38a18d1a57335. I guess tomorrow I try again with part A and part B ...
    So it looks like the answer is: check with md5sum that you actually have the full ISO.

    Check pkginfo -l for each package.
    export the PATH variable where the packages are installed, like /usr/local/bin and etc.
