Step 1:
Follow the standard package installation process to get SUNWmd
installed. When done, you should be able to check it thus:
$ pkginfo -l SUNWmd
PKGINST: SUNWmd
NAME: Solstice DiskSuite
CATEGORY: system
ARCH: all
VERSION: 4.0,REV=1.0
BASEDIR: /
VENDOR: SunSoft, a Sun Microsystems, Inc. Business
DESC: SunSoft's Solstice DiskSuite
PSTAMP: airjazz950414160211
INSTDATE: Dec 11 1998 13:40
VSTOCK: 258-4903-10
HOTLINE: Please contact your local service provider
STATUS: completely installed
FILES: 75 installed pathnames
41 shared pathnames
22 directories
23 executables
6948 blocks used (approx)
The above is DiskSuite Rev 4.0 for Solaris 2.5.1 on Intel. The Sun Sparc 20
hardware says the following :
$ pkginfo -l SUNWmd
PKGINST: SUNWmd
NAME: Solstice DiskSuite
CATEGORY: system
ARCH: sparc
VERSION: 4.2,REV=1998.02.09.12.47.28
BASEDIR: /
VENDOR: Sun Microsystems, Inc.
DESC: Solstice DiskSuite
PSTAMP: 09/02/98-13:04:05
INSTDATE: May 29 1999 00:08
VSTOCK: 258-6252-11
HOTLINE: Please contact your local service provider
STATUS: completely installed
FILES: 95 installed pathnames
22 shared pathnames
25 directories
37 executables
13496 blocks used (approx)
I have no idea why the ARCH tag says ‘all’ for x86 on 2.5.1 and is
correct with ‘sparc’ for Solaris 7 on Sparc.
