In a previous post i showed how to add a system to a jumpstart configuration. Now i will show how to add a new release of Solaris to the jumpstart.

# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/Solaris_10/Tools

# ./setup_install_server /work/install/sol10_0508

This will copy all the files from the dvd to the appropriate directories on your jumpstart server. Be patient, this may take a long time.

Don’t forget to edit /etc/bootparams for existing systems in your environment that will want to install the older image.

Playing with drupal today it would not allow me to enable clean url’s, which changes posts from http://anouk.dynalias.com/drupal/?q=node/1 to http://anouk.dynalias.com/drupal/node/1.  I had to do the following to allow the check of the clean url’s enabled radio button.

Edit httpd.conf, in my case /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf and add the following directory directive:

<Directory “/work/html/drupal”>
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Edit drupal’s .htaccess file, in my case /work/html/drupal/.htaccess and change the following:

# RewriteBase /

to

RewriteBase /drupal

Now go back to your drupal admin page and hopefully the radio button should be ungrayed.
