Make the drive at least 2 Gbytes in size, which can be expanded later if needed.

Attach the drive as a C: drive.

For best performance, create your emulated drives on a local hard disk on your Sun system or server.

The SunPCi III software reboots. The OpenDOS prompt (C:\>) opens.

2.Install the SunPCi III drivers.

The default location for the Windows 2000 files is r:\cdrom\cdrom0\i386. However, if your Windows 2000 files reside at a location other than the default one, you need to use the /s: switch to specify where the files are located. For example, if your Windows 2000 disk image is located in your Solaris directory at /export/home/win2k, you would access it from the R: drive in OpenDOS.

Note – Copy all the contents of the installation CD files to the win2k folder before starting the installation.

Type the following command all on one line:

C:\> f:\drivers\win2k\setupw2k /s:r:\export\home\win2k\i386

The setup process takes a few minutes to complete.

When the setupw2k script finishes copying the Windows 2000 files to your C: drive, it reboots the SunPCi III software. The Windows 2000 Setup screen opens. When Windows 2000 Setup has finished copying files, it reboots the SunPCi III software again.

Tip – The SunPCi III messages are for the Windows 2000 Professional setup. The Windows 2000 Server messages differ slightly.

3.After the SunPCi III software reboots from the Windows 2000 window, choose Attach Mouse from the Options menu or press Meta-M to attach the mouse.

This enables the mouse to work with Windows 2000 during the installation process. Once the installation is complete, the proper mouse drivers are installed and you no longer need to attach the mouse manually.

4.Change directory to the location for your customized installation scripts.

5.Complete the installation using your customized installation scripts.
