2.

Boot the computer with the "-r" (reconfiguration) option.
To do this on a typical SPARC desktop/server, perform
the following steps:

•

Power ON the computer.

Wait until you see boot messages displaying on the
screen, then press and hold the Stop (L1) key, and
then press the "A" key.

•

At the "ok" prompt, type "boot –r" followed by the
<Enter> key.

After the system has booted, log in as root.


4.

Insert the CD-ROM labeled "GFX 400 Series Driver
Software-Solaris Edition" into the CD-ROM drive.


5.

If /cdrom/cdrom0 exists, type:

prompt#

cd /cdrom/cdrom0


Skip to step 6. Otherwise, mount the CD-ROM by typing
the following:

prompt# mount -F hsfs -O -o ro \
/dev/dsk/c0t6d0s0 /cdrom


prompt# cd /cdrom


6.

The CD-ROM contains an install_all script. To
install the software, type:

prompt# ./install_all

This script will ask you a number of yes-or-no questions
(generated by Sun's pkgadd install script). Answer
these questions appropriately.

Reboot the system to complete the installation.
