Hi,
does someone know how to create a bootable
install image (aka .iso file)? I have managed
to tweak an image for zfs boot. But the whole
content resides in a directory now and I don´t
have a clou how to get a bootable install image
from it.
The steps I did were:
1. I took the downloaded installation
image sol-nv-b77-x86-dvd.iso and
2. mounted it
# mkdir /mnt77
# lofiadm -a /path/sol-nv-b77-x86-dvd.iso
# mount -F hsfs /dev/lofi/1 /mnt77
3. Then I called ./setup_install_server
# mkdir /zfsboot
# cd /mnt77/Solaris_11/Tools
# ./setup_install_server /zfsboot
4. Then I called ./patch_image_for_zfsboot from the
kit from Lori Alt/Dave Miner which can be downloaded at
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/install/files/zfsboot-kit-20060418.i386.tar.bz2
# mkdir /zfsbootkit
# cd /zfsbootkit
# bunzip2 -c zfsboot-kit-20060418.i386.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -
# ./patch_image_for_zfsboot /zfsboot
5. Now I played around with mkisofs
# mkisofs --joliet-long /zfsboot > zfsboot.iso
But I might be missing the obvious. It would be glad
if someone could tell me how to get an installable
image out of /zfsboot.
