Installation With Software Manager (swm)
The Software Manager (
swm
(1)) provides a character user interface for
installing and removing packages under Solaris 2.1 and 2.2.
The Software Manager must be invoked from a cursor-addressable terminal or
window-based terminal emulator such as
xterm
(1) or
shelltool
(1). If you
are using a window-based emulation, the window must be at least 24
characters deep and 80 characters wide. Use
stty
(1) to determine if your
window is large enough. You must run
swm
as super user.
The
swm
program uses a “hot-key” interface. Thus, you do not need to press
Return
after entering a menu choice character. You only type
Return
to exit
the menu or when asked for confirmation.
Use the following command to invoke
swm
.
After
swm
determines the software that is installed on your system, the
Software Manager Main Menu appears:
1. Select option a to choose the device driver. An asterisk is displayed to
show that the driver has been chosen.
# /usr/sbin/swm -d /cdrom
