Ignite-UX Custom Configuration files

Important:
HP-UX does not currently support writing to USB DVD writers. This
currently a
ffects the built-in DVD writers on the rx3600 and rx6600
systems and is expected to be resolved on both HP-UX 11i v2 and 11i
v3 with OE updates during 2007.
Although this question does not appear to be related to custom configuration, you can place
custom configuration in the installation file systems contained on a custom installation CD that you
create.
The following example instructions were developed using Ignite-UX version B.5.4. These
instructions are applicable to Ignite-UX version C.6.0 and greater, however you will need to select
an operating system revision using the -r option.
With Ignite-UX version B.5.4 this method creates a CD that can boot HP-UX 11i v1 systems and
Itanium®-based systems running HP-UX 11i v2 (running OEs released before September 2004).
With Ignite-UX C.6.0, you are queried for the HP-UX release so you can create a CD that supports
Itanium®-based and PA-RISC systems running 11i v2; you must create a different CD to support PA-
RISC systems running 11i v1.
You must install the correct Ignite-UX software to support the HP-UX revision for which you wish to
create these CDs. For example, if you install the HP-UX 11i v1 bundles for Ignite-UX C.6.0, you
will not be able to create a CD supporting 11i v2 since you have not installed the software
supporting that release of HP-UX.
Create a LIF. If you are using Ignite-UX versions before C.6.0, enter:
# make_medialif -m -l ./my_lif
If you are using Ignite-UX versions C.6.0 and later, enter:
# make_medialif –m –r B.XX.YY –l ./my_lif
where, B.XX.YY is the release of HP-UX for which you want to create the LIF. See Column 1 in Table
2 for a list of HP-UX releases you can use and what it will allow you to install or recover.
To verify the lif contents, use the following commands:
# lifls -l ./my_lif
