Best regards, Perhaps just a customized DVD image with your desired software selection as part of the profile is more in order. You could even pre-configure the exact software selection and create a flash archive. See http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/coll/1236.1 for details on jumpstart and flash archives. See http://www.sun.com/blueprints/0404/817-6991.pdf for details on creation of a custom jumpstart DVD to deploy flash archives.

My background for such initiative is using Knoppix. Is there a such simple ways with OpenSolaris already ? Best regards, If all you are doing is adding software _in addition_ to what OpenSolaris already delivers, then you might want to look at webstart. The installer asks a question about whether you have any additional media to install, and this is where webstart comes in ... it can provide a nice GUI around the underlying pkgadd scripts, and integrate with the installer. -- Garrett ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED]
