i have one more way but it need opensolaris 2008-11 must be installed. It
provides tool to create the same. But its a long procedure. Its building the
distribution all over again. In osol8-11 package manager is present. With the
help of that we can find tools like SUNWdistro-const. Which help in creating a
new distribution. If in any way we can find this tool we can we can create the
ISO.But this only can be downloaded through package manager as far as i know.
1st we have to run the command
"hg clone ssh://anon at hg.opensolaris.org/hg/pkg/gate pkg-gate" only
applicable for osol08.11
For this we must download "SUNWmercurial" which can be found easily.
this also can be downloaded directly by this command "pfexec pkg install
SUNWmercurial" only for osol08.11.
one important thing is that,
Your installed system must have network access.
Specifically, the distribution constructor accesses IPS repositories that are
available on the network to retrieve packages for the ISO image. You must have
network access to the repositories that you specify in the manifest file.
now through package manager we can download the following,
* SUNWipkg
* SUNWgnome-common-devel
* sunstudioexpress
* SUNWdistro-const
Then we should create the package gate
with this command
$ cd pkg-gate/src
$ make
$ make packages
The distribution constructor application includes the following primary
features:
Manifest File
An XML manifest file is a blueprint that specifies the contents and
parameters of the ISO image that is created by the distribution constructor.
The manifest specifies parameters such as the following:
Package names to include in the ISO image
Network location of the repository to access to retrieve packages for the image
Name and location of scripts used to finalize the creation of the new image
Some core fields in the manifest field must be completed manually by you.
However, many other fields in the manifest provide preset, default values that
result in an ISO image comparable to the OpenSolaris 2008.11 Live CD.
Optionally, you can manually edit these preset fields in the manifest file to
further customize the resulting image.
See the distro_const(1M) man page for detailed information.
Now to build the ISO Image in One Step we have to do the following.
To run a complete build of an image without pausing, use the basic distro_const
command without options as follows:
$ pfexec distro_const build manifest
Replace manifest with the name of the manifest file to be used. The build
subcommand is required.
i have not used this so far.
This method quite complicated so any easy method without using osol08.11 is
welcome.
Thanks
