Using flar
Creating a complete, ready to install copy of your freshly installed
system is very simple thanks to the flar command in Solaris 10. This
is a very powerful tool to know. I recommend reading the man page on
this one " alt="

First it's best to be in single user mode:
'init s'
Then we do:
'cd /' or where ever you want to keep it. Make sure you have enough disk space!
flar -n <name>.flar -c <same name>.flar
It's that easy! This will create a complete .flar image of your current system. You can now go on to do a flash install on another system or create a kick-start image.Posted at 11:21PM Mar 24, 2008 by thinkdif in Sun | Comments[0]
