▼ To Set Up a Diskless Client on a GigaSwift
Ethernet Network
1. Locate the root directory of the diskless client on the host server.
The root directory of diskless client system is commonly installed in the host
server’s /export/root/client_name directory, where client_name is the diskless
client’s host name. In this procedure, the root directory will be:
2. Insert the Sun GigaSwift Ethernet Driver 1.0 CD into the server’s CD-ROM drive.
The CD should automatically mount to the /cdrom/cdrom0 directory. If the CD did
not get mounted to this directory, refer to “Installing the Driver Software” on page 5
for mounting instructions.
3. Use the pkgadd -R command to install the three GigaSwift Ethernet software
packages to the diskless client’s root directory on the server.
You will need to install the SUNWced, SUNWcedm, and SUNWcedu software packages
to the client’s root directory.
4. Eject the Sun GigaSwift Ethernet Driver 1.0 CD from the CD-ROM drive.
5. Create a hostname.cenumber file in the diskless client’s root directory.
You will need to create an /export/root/client_name/etc/hostname.cenumber
file for the GigaSwift Ethernet interface. See “Configuring the Network Host Files”
on page 17 for instructions.
6. Edit the hosts in the diskless client’s root directory.
You will need to edit the /export/root/client_name/etc/hosts file to include the
IP address of the GigaSwift Ethernet interface. See “Configuring the Network Host
Files” on page 17 for instructions.
