2. Insert the Sun GigaSwift Ethernet Driver 1.0 Update 1 CD into the server’s CD-ROM

drive.

The CD should automatically mount to the

/cdrom/cdrom0

directory. If the CD did

not get mounted to this directory, refer to “Installing the Driver Software” on page 9
for mounting instructions.

3. Use the

pkgadd -R

command to install the three GigaSwift Ethernet software

packages to the diskless client’s root directory on the server.

You will need to install the

SUNWced.u

,

SUNWcedm

, and

SUNWcedu

software

packages to the client’s root directory.

4. Eject the Sun GigaSwift Ethernet Driver 1.0 Update 1 CD from the CD-ROM drive.

5. Create a

hostname.ce

number file in the diskless client’s root directory.

You will need to create an

/export/root/

client_name

/etc/hostname.ce

number

file for the GigaSwift Ethernet interface. See “Configuring the Network Host Files”
on page 25
for instructions.

6. Edit the

hosts

in the diskless client’s root directory.

You will need to edit the

/export/root/

client_name

/etc/hosts

file to include the

IP address of the GigaSwift Ethernet interface. See “Configuring the Network Host
Files” on page 25
for instructions.

7. Be sure to set the MAC address on the server side and rebuild the device tree if

you want to boot from the GigaSwift Ethernet port.

8. To boot the diskless client from the GigaSwift Ethernet port, type the following

boot command:

# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/GigaSwiftEthernet/Packages

# pkgadd -R /export/root/
