One would think this would be a simple task. Half the commerical packages
proclaim that they can do it. But alas, for me, none of them worked.
The task was to create a system installer that would boot a sun, load up
the appropriate system images and tools required for a server in our
environment. Yes, this is a perfect job for jumpstart, but the systems
would be distributed across the state and not connected via a fast enough
pipe to use jumpstart effectivly. The other option was to build external
disks with the proper images on them and boot from there. The cost of
producing a few hundrad of these was prohibitive, thus the CDROM approach
was taken.
