If the CD-ROM player that you are using for software installation is attached to
a remote machine, refer to your SunOS installation guide for remote CD-ROM
access and proceed with the installation procedures that follow.
3.3.2 Using cdm

the cdm program. The cdm program has a command-line interface that allows
you to install applications directly onto a machine that does not have a bit-
mapped display. The following text presents instructions for cdm.
hostname # cd /export/exec
hostname # ls -l sun4
lrwxrwxrwx l root 4 Apr 9 03:27 sun4 -> /usr
hostname # ln -s /usr sun4
