3.2.2.4 Booting the Client Using the itmpt FC Driver
Now you can begin the installation of the Solaris operating system to the
client target machine using the boot and install server. On the client
machine, boot the network install kit you created in the preceding steps
as follows:
ok boot net -v
Note: It is important to choose "Manual Reboot" rather than "Auto
Reboot" during the installation of Solaris on the target
machine.If you choose "Auto Reboot", you will not have the
opportunity to complete the installation of the
LSI Logic/IntraServer FC drivers and yoursystem will fail to
boot.
After the installation has completed and the system is waiting to be
manually rebooted, proceed to a console window and run the following
script:
/sbin/itmptinst
This copies and installs the drivers from the boot server to the newly
created Solaris installation. After this script has been run, the
LSI Logic/IntraServer devicedr iverinstallation is complete and the
system can be rebooted.
