So, I assume that he is trying to add these additional project specific packages during AI installation. If that's the case, the Distribution Construction doesn't help, since additional packages added to the AI image only shows up in the booted AI client env. Those additional packages do not get installed into the installed system.
To do what you want via AI, you really need to setup your own package server, put your packages in there. Then, add your own package server as well as your list of packages to the AI manifest. --Karen > >> Can someone point me to information on how we set up our own package >> server? > > http://opensolaris.org/os/project/pkg/ > > Michal Pryc's blog on the subject: > http://blogs.sun.com/migi/entry/create_your_own_opensolaris_ips2 > > >> >> Mr. Ceri Davies - Staff Engineer (Software) >> Sun Microsystems - Data Management Group >> Ceri.Davies at Sun.com >> W:(303) 272-7810 (x77810) >> H:(303) 442-2795 >> Typically work from home on Fridays >> >> >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> caiman-discuss mailing list >> caiman-discuss at opensolaris.org >> http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/caiman-discuss > > _______________________________________________ > caiman-discuss mailing list > caiman-discuss at opensolaris.org > http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/caiman-discuss
