comparsion with solaris 11.3 guide/ You can copy the downloaded image to removable media, such as a USB drive or burn it to a DVD. USB images require the usbcopy utility to copy the bootable ISO image to a USB flash drive. In this release, USB installation media is also available for SPARC platforms. To use the usbcopy utility, first install the pkg:/install/distribution-constructor package. https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E53394_01/html/E54838/glmzx.html ###################### x86: Setting Up Partitions During an Interactive Installation https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E53394_01/html/E54756/partsys.html#IOSUIpartsys ############# : What options are available to install Oracle Solaris 11 without access to a CD or DVD drive?

It should be burned to a USB stick using the instructions below. -mini-memstick.img: Like -bootonly.iso, does not include installation files, but downloads them as needed. A working internet connection is required during installation. Write this file to a USB stick as shown in Section 2.3.1.1, “Writing an Image File to USB”. After downloading the image file, download CHECKSUM.SHA256 from the same directory. Calculate a checksum for the image file. FreeBSD provides sha256(1) for this, used as sha256 imagefilename. Other operating systems have similar programs. https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/bsdinstall-pre.html -- swjatoslaw gerus milstar2@eml.cc ----- Original message ----- From: Polytropon < PS.
