Hello.

Thanks to the help of Wolfgang, jumpstart is now working. But it looks
very awful

I'm installing on a 280R and connect to the system over the RSC from
a Gnome-Terminal or xterm on a Gentoo Linux or Solaris 10 system.
$TERM is equal to "xterm". So I set "terminal=xterm" in the sysidcfg
file:

$ cat /data/software/solaris/Solaris10/U5/sysidcfg/sys02
keyboard=Swiss-German
system_locale=de_CH.UTF-8
timezone=Europe/Zurich
terminal=xterm
timeserver=10.0.1.11
name_service=DNS {domain_name=unx
name_server=10.0.1.11,10.0.2.1,10.0.15.4
search=unx}
nfs4_domain=dynamic
root_password=r...
network_interface=PRIMARY {hostname=sys02
default_route=10.0.0.254
ip_address=10.0.1.22
netmask=255.255.248.0
protocol_ipv6=no}
security_policy=NONE
service_profile=limited_net

But this looks very bad:

hai X Windows Platform required Fonts Package
\ 7,19
/ Sun In44niBand Sockets Direct Protocol
GLIB - Library of useful outines for C
\ progra77ing
Audio Drivers
-

It was also quite a chore to do the selections in the screens
where you have to use the cursor (ie. when selecting what locales
to use and when setting up the slices).

I suppose it's so broken, because the "terminal" definition doesn't
actually match what the terminal (gnome-terminal normally, but I also
tried xterm) actually expects.

What should I set the terminal to in the sysidcfg file?

Thanks a lot,

Michael

I originally had sun-cmd (because that's what's in the examples).
The result was even *WAY* worse than with xterm. That's why I
changed to xterm.

I'll give that a try.

That's very good! With (more or less...) nice colors, but, much more
importantly, the display doesn't get all screwed up, when a cursor key
is pressed.

Excelent!

Thanks a lot,

Michael
