Re: Jumpstart of GNOME 2.0 with Solaris 9.



Hi,


Currently there is nothing supported in place to install Gnome as an extra via 
JumpStart (although we have started working on it for installing test machines 
in our lab). I'm sure that this would be relatively easy and only requires 
modification of the finish script to include a simple installation script for 
adding the Gnome pkgs - I believe there is a sequence (due to dependancies) in 
which the pkgs must be installed - check with Laszlo Peter or Armin Theissen on 
what sequence the Gnome pkgs need to be added - there might even be a gnome 
installation script lying around that you could hack :)


Cheers
Shane
