From a Remote Floppy Device
1
Decide where you want to store the Xerox installation files
on the hard disk of your local workstation and create a
directory.
2
Change to the directory you just created.
You will be using the
BSD R
commands and may need
assistance from a system or network administrator to modify
the following files:
/.rhosts
~/hosts.equiv
/etc/hosts
/etc/inetd.conf
3
Insert the UNIX Installation Utility diskette that is shipped
with the XNIC into the floppy drive of your remote
workstation and follow this procedure to begin the
installation.
4
At your remote workstation, enter:
# /etc/init.d/volmgt stop
(only on Solaris System)
All commands from here on will be on your local
workstation.
5
At your local workstation, enter:
# rsh remote_server_name -n dd ¬
if=/dev/fd0 | tar -xvf-
(extracts the
installation files)
# rsh remote_server_name eject
# rsh remote_server_name ¬
/etc/init.d/volmgt start
6
If your workstation is SunOS, enter:
# cp ./hostbin/sunsparc/* ./xrx
If your workstation is Solaris, enter:
# cp ./hostbin/solsparc/* ./xrx
