README Documents
README documents are media booklets that contain information about
the installation process that may not appear in the HP-UX 11i Version 2
Installation and Update Guide. Any product contained in the release
may have a README document, so several README documents may be
included. The README document specific for HP-UX 11i v2 is included
with your media kit.
NOTE The references listed below assume you know how to mount a DVD on
your system. Files located on mounted DVD drives are referenced as
dvd_mount_point, followed the file path on the DVD media. For more
details see “Mounting Your DVD” on page 29
Bundle readme files (in text and HTML formats) contain additional
installation instructions, notes about problems in current and
previous releases, a list of patches and their dependencies, and
changes since the last release. You can print or view these files
directly from the DVD, for example:
more /dvd_mount_point/docs/patch/QPK1123.readme.html
Each bundle readme file is also available in HTML format. These
files contain hyperlinks to the patch text files, located at the same
directory level as each bundle. You can enter a URL into a web
browser to view these files directly from the CD, for example:
file:/dvd_mount_point/docs/patch/QPK1123.readme.html
Patch text files for all patches are on the DVD in the
/cdrom/TEXT_FILES directory. These files provide detailed
information about the patch. Patch text files are also included with
individual patches that you retrieve from HP. You can print or view
these directly from the CD, for example:
more \
/dvd_mount_point/docs/patch/patch_text/PHSS_xxxx.text
