How about making a copy of the cd/dvd to an iso and installing from that? Somewhere in *nix land where it's easier to mount and use the cd... # dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/var/tmp/uv.iso bs=8000
transport the resulting ISO to your HPUX machine # mount -F lofs /some/dir/to/uv.iso /tmp/mount You should then be able to cd to /tmp/mount and run the cpio command as root (or uvadm?) and follow the install instructions for hpux. # cpio -ivcBdum uv.load < ./STARTUP # ./uv.load -longnames HTH Peter Peter Cheney Ultracs Developer t 07 3017 8837 | f 07 3002 8400 e peter.che...@firstmac.com.au w firstmac.com.au -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of William Brutzman Sent: Saturday, 14 December 2013 10:49 To: U2 Users List Subject: [U2] UniVerse Install on HP-Ux 1. I am having some problems trying to get to first base. 2. There is this cpio command. 3. Is it necessary to install from a CD or DVD? 4. I would rather install from FTP'd files. 5. Mounting the media is a hassle... so is CDFS on a DVD. 6. Suggestions would be appreciated. --Bill _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: This email (inc all attachments) is for the use of the intended recipient(s) only.
