4. Use the up and down arrow keys to select one of the following options:
■
To display output to the serial port, choose the following option:
Solaris 10 10/09 s10x_u8wos_u08a X86 - Serial Port (tty)
■
To display output to the video port, choose the following option:
Solaris 10 10/09 s10x_u8wos_u08a X86 - Graphics Adapter
If you choose to display output to the video port, you must connect a device to
the VGA connector on the server module’s dongle cable and complete the
configuration from that device. For information about connecting devices to
the server module, see
“Attaching Devices to the Server Using a Dongle Cable”
on page 15
.
Note –
By default, the system displays the output to the serial port. If you do not
select an option on the GRUB menu, after ten seconds, the GRUB menu is no longer
available and the system continues with the output directed to the serial port.
5. Follow the Solaris 10 on-screen prompts to configure the software.
Use the information you entered in the
“Configuration Worksheet” on page 33
to
respond to the prompts.
The screens that are displayed will vary, depending on the method that you chose
for assigning network information to the server (DHCP or static IP address).
After you have entered the system configuration information, the server
completes the boot process and displays the Solaris login prompt.
