2 dvd iso to one install point on Ignite

Mark Trux — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 09:56:02 GMT

I have 2 DVDs for MCOE and I need to combine them into one install point on the Ignite server.
I have the Ignite server working so that if you connect from a lan (EFI) to the Ignite server I get the install prompt
1.11.23
2.11.31
3 Exit

I read the Ignite PDF but it is still not clear to me how to finish the process.

Thanks

The question is not entirely clear to me.

1) copy both install DVDs to the same depot

2) select what you want to install - ignite have install kernels for both - 11.31 and 11.23

If you copied for example the 11.23 DVD, you now must select 1. 11.23.

Isnt there config files that need to be created?

Just select the OS version you want - the installer will look the same as you would boot from the DVD (all values adjustable or default).

The pro: you don't need to be a disk jockey and the installation (even with additional products from application DVD) will be done in one go.
