Installation errors for HPUX 11.11

I am trying to install the latest copy of 11.11 using ignite-ux. I receive the following errors:

* Aborting the Install Phase.

This is similar to the errors that someone found about a year ago and had also posted here. I did not see any resolution to the problem.

I have mounted the media on a DVDrom.

What version of Ignite ?

Did you configure the host with IP and hostname on a working NIC ?

I do not know the version of ignite. It was on the 11.11 DVD disk. As for the IP, I have not configured that yet. Should the IP address be correctly configured before the ignite installation?

Hi,

at which hardware do you want to install?
How have you created ignite?
How do you want to install it, tape - network (ignite server)?

Hello,

I am installing 11.11 on a K360, using the version of ignite that is on the DVD. Since I am in the middle of the installation, I cannot eject the DVD to verify the version of ignite. This is a local installation (no network).

Re: Installation errors for HPUX 11.11

Hi again,

if it's a new installation, is it necessary to use ignite?
Can you install quite from the media?

BTW - which thread did you find about this?
Can you post that link, too?
