24 SunPCi III 3.2.1 Users Guide March 2004
One solution is to name the .ini file and its disk image using some identifying
characteristic, such as the operating system installed on the disk image. You can only
run one C: and one D: drive per card at a time.
Unless you specify differently, the following convention is the default SunPCi III
3.2.1 graphical user interface (GUI) behavior when you use the sunpci command
with the -n option. The stem of the specified .ini file name, for example win2k,is
incorporated into the disk image file name as shown in
TABLE 3-1. The following
procedure illustrates this behavior.
How to Create an .ini File Using the -n Option
The following procedure assumes that you have installed an additional card or cards
into your system. To create a new .ini file, follow these steps:
1. At the Solaris prompt, type the following command:
By default, after creating an
.ini file (using the sunpci command with the -n), the
emulated drive name will use the .ini name as the default name for the emulated
drive, such as c.filename.diskimage. You can edit the name if needed through the
user interface.
The Create a New Existing Emulated Drive dialog box opens.
2. Click OK to accept the default disk image name.
For additional information, refer to “Creating an Emulated Drive” on page 13.
