Dear Sun-Experts,
I would like to switch the Solris 10 installation of a Sparc based hardware (T5240) to Solaris 11. My problem : I don't have a functional DVD drive so I would like to boot via network.
My second problem is that all the other machines only have Solaris 10 installed.
As far as I investigated it is only possible to set up an Solaris 11 install server if you have already Solaris 11 installed.
A classical hen - egg problem...
Is there a possibility to set up a Solaris 11 install server on a Solaris 10 system ?
Are there any manuals available ?
I would be glad about any hints.
Best regards,
Daniel

Console-Applikation, mount a Solaris-11-ISO-Image located on your PC.
Then you can boot Solaris-11.
Hope that helps.
