x86: kdmconfig Command Does Not Create System
Identication Conguration File for Xorg X Server
(6217442)
If you use the JumpStart installation method, the process might use a system identication
conguration (sysidcfg) le. This le is used to generate a specic Xsun conguration le for a
system. The Xsun conguration portion of a sysidcfg le is created by the command
kdmconfig -d lename. However, on systems that use the default Xorg server, the command
does not create a le with any Xorg conguration information. Consequently, you cannot use
the JumpStart method on these systems without some additional preparatory steps.
Workaround: Before using the JumpStart installation method on a system that uses the Xorg
server, perform the following steps.
1. Prepare a specic xorg.conf le to be used on the system. Store this le in the JumpStart
directory of the JumpStart server.
Create an xorg.conf le with one of these commands:
■
/usr/X11/bin/Xorg -configure
■
/usr/X11/bin/xorgconfig
■
/usr/X11/bin/xorgcfg
2. Create a nish script that copies the xorg.conf le to the /etc/X11 directory in the system
that you want to install. For example, the script might include the following line:
cp ${SI_CONFIG_DIR}/xorg.conf /etc/X11/Xorg.conf
3. In the custom JumpStart rules le, include the nish script in the rules entry for systems of
the type that you want to install.
4. Perform the custom JumpStart installation.
For instructions about how to perform a custom JumpStart installation, see the
Solaris 10 5/08
Installation Guide: Custom JumpStart and Advanced Installations
. Chapter 4 includes
information about the JumpStart rules le, while Chapter 5 contains a section about nish
scripts.
