很多人熟悉Solaris在SPARC平台的网络安装，SPARC平台上的OBP很好用，没OS时也可从网上引导OS，甚至 WAN boot, 但Intel服务器也有类似的功能，即PXE协议，也可从网上引导，现试一把Intel平台PXE网络安装Solaris：
1。同SPARC平台一样，先建好安装服务器u10：
将Intel Xeon client的IP和MAC地址填入服务器表中, 主机名b200：
＃vi /etc/hosts
10.1.1.10 u10
10.1.1.200 b200
...
# vi /etc/ethers
...
00:03:ba:2d:f4:64 b200
...
将Solaris x86 DVD image挂上：
# lofiadm -a /dvd/sol-10-GA-x86-dvd-iso.iso
# mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/lofi/1 /cdrom
# df -k
/dev/lofi/1 2575552 2575552 0 100% /cdrom
将Solaris 10 x86 DVD目录共享出去：
# share -F nfs -o ro /cdrom
# share
- /cdrom ro ""
2。加入安装client，与SPARC平台不一样：
# ./add_install_client -d -e "00:03:ba:2d:f4:64" -b "input-device
=ttya" -b "input-device=ttya" -b "output-device=ttya" -c u10:/config -p u10:/config i86pc
/cdrom already has an entry in /etc/dfs/dfstab.
However, /cdrom must be shared read-only with root access.
Use ro and anon=0 for /cdrom. The /etc/dfs/dfstab file must be
fixed and /cdrom shared before 00:03:ba:2d:f4:64 can boot.
To enable 0103BA2DF464 in the DHCP server, ensure that
the following Sun vendor-specific options are defined
(SinstNM, SinstIP4, SinstPTH, SrootNM, SrootIP4,
SrootPTH, SbootURI and optionally SjumpCF and SsysidCF),
and add a macro to the server named 0103BA2DF464,
containing the following option values:
Install server (SinstNM) : u10
Install server IP (SinstIP4) : 10.1.1.10
Install server path (SinstPTH) : /cdrom
Root server name (SrootNM) : u10
Root server IP (SrootIP4) : 10.1.1.10
Root server path (SrootPTH) : /cdrom/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot
Boot file (BootFile) : nbp.0103BA2DF464
Solaris boot file (SbootURI) : tftp://10.1.1.10/0103BA2DF464
Profile location (SjumpsCF) : u10:/config
sysidcfg location (SsysidCF) : u10:/config
If not already configured, enable PXE boot by creating
a macro called PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001
which contains the following values:
Boot server IP (BootSrvA) : 10.1.1.10
This macro will be explicitly requested by the PXE boot.
3。与SPARC平台不一样，先再建好PXE DHCP服务器：
在安装服务器上运行DHCP工具：
# cd /usr/sadm/admin/bin
# ./dhcpmgr
加永久IP地址10.1.1.200给b200(同往常), 不同之处是DHCP服务器工具中缺省
没有9个支持PXE的参数选项，需添加入dhcpmgr：
# dhtadm -A -s SrootIP4 -d 'Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,2,IP,1,1'
# dhtadm -A -s SrootNM -d 'Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,3,ASCII,1,0'
# dhtadm -A -s SrootPTH -d 'Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,4,ASCII,1,0'
# dhtadm -A -s SinstIP4 -d 'Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,10,IP,1,1'
# dhtadm -A -s SinstNM -d 'Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,11,ASCII,1,0'
# dhtadm -A -s SinstPTH -d 'Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,12,ASCII,1,0'
# dhtadm -A -s SsysidCF -d 'Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,13,ASCII,1,0'
# dhtadm -A -s SjumpsCF -d 'Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,14,ASCII,1,0'
# dhtadm -A -s SbootURI -d 'Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,16,ASCII,1,0'
再建立全局PXE宏，即建立一个名为PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001的宏，并为其添加9个支持PXE的选项参数，不能有分毫差错，Intel Client就hung了：
宏PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001，名字不能改，包括：
SinstNM - 安装服务器主机名，u10
SinstIP4- 安装服务器IP， 10.1.1.10
SrootPTH - Solaris DVD目录，/cdrom
SrootNM - 安装服务器主机名，u10
SrootIP4 - 安装服务器IP，10.1.1.10
SrootPTH - 系统引导，/cdrom/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot
SbootURI - 系统引导文件URI，tftp://10.1.1.10/0103BA2DF464
(文件名通常为：序号+MAC，可在/tftpboot目录下找到）
SjumpsCF - 系统 jumpstart 配置文件目录，如/config，如交互安装则不用
SsysidCF - 系统 jumpstart 配置文件目录，如/config，如交互安装则不用
另加两个标准参数：
BootFile - 系统引导文件，nbp.010003BA2DF464, 可在/tftpboot目录下找到
BootSrvA - 安装服务器IP，10.1.1.10
单独建立另一宏，给Intel Xeon用，名为010003BA2DF464：
包含的选项参数同宏PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001。
4。此时在dhcpmgr重启DHCP服务，如Intel Xeon client加电，即可发现其用PXE
从网上u10的solaris启动了：

( 其它过程，同SPARC平台安装，走到底就装完了，但想简单了，后面还是 hung了，可能是用Solaris 10 x86的问题? image? NFS? ）
