Setting up a jumpstart server without a CD/DVD Burner..

807557Apr 8 2008 — edited Apr 8 2008

I've downloaded the ISO images for the CDs and copied them over to my jumpstart server. I've mounted the first ISO using lofiadm and mount -F hsfs - see below, but when I try and run the ./setup_install_server command it complains about Boot - this is a link to a non-existent file - anyone any ideas how to get round it?

# lofiadm -a `pwd`/sol-10-u4-ga-sparc-v1.iso
/dev/lofi/1
# mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/lofi/1 /mnt
# cd /mnt
# ls
