From the My Oracle Support web site, follow the instructions in the knowledge document These packages include existing software, new features, and bug fixes. If you do not remove the existing packages and install the new packages on your system before using Live Upgrade, upgrading or patching to the target release fails.
You can install the packages by using the liveupgrade20 command that is on the installation DVD or CD or by using the pkgadd command. The liveupgrade20 command requires Java software. If your system does not have Java software installed, then you need to use the pkgadd command to install the packages. See the My Oracle Support knowledge document for more information. The -noconsole and -nodisplay options prevent the character user interface CUI from displaying.
If you are using the Oracle Solaris Software — 2 CD, you can run the installer without changing the path. Install the patches listed in knowledge document Separate multiple patch names with a space. Note - The patches need to be applied in the order specified in knowledge document You now have the packages and patches necessary for a successful creation of a new boot environment. The source boot environment is named c0t4d0s0 by using the -c option. Naming the source boot environment is required only when the first boot environment is created.
The new boot environment is named c0t15d0s0. The -A option creates a description that is associated with the boot environment name. I disagree; I mounted the. Copying Install Boot Image hierarchy ISO image, I'd love to know how! Just looked at this in closer detail and noticed that they removed all of the platform-specific dirs. Changing the platform to "sun4u" seemed to work. Actually, it still has all the slices on it, but they all point back to the whole DVD.
This is needed so it will boot on any sparc system different architectures default to booting from different slices. It's all these overlapping slices which confuse vold too it has code to look for them and only mount one of them, but trips up with so many. I don't do this often, but I did earlier today for an Ultra 10 on an x64 jumpstart server. I think I just used "sun4u" as the last argument. Well, I've downloaded both the Sparc images single and split versions and both still failed!
Sun are now sending me out one that they have burnt. I'll keep you posted No dice. Does not work. Is this the same problem perhaps? I did an orderly shutdown, waited for the boot screen, then Stop-A and boot cdrom.
The way I've always done it. Obviously this machine is fairly elderly, but I replaced the DVD ROM with an identical new boxed Sun unit and since then it's had little to no usage, so I doubt it's the drive. Might this be resolved with an OBP update?

Did you EVER use it for anything? I mentioned previously I have tried 2 different iso's and even had one sent from Sun only to discover that I was unable to boot from any of them. The server I was using was very old though so I tried a V, all 3 iso's worked perfectly. Some of the older DVD drives must not accept the boot block format of the new media. So what does someone like me with only one machine operational do to get around this?
I don't want to get another machine setup just to do a jumpstart. You still have options. You'll have to create an alternate boot environment first.
Select Yes to perform the analysis. If you are using the text installer to upgrade, select Analyze on the Analyze Patches dialog box to perform the analysis. After you perform the analysis, refer to To Review the Patch Analyzer Output for detailed information about the patch analysis results.

I just have a single solaris box, so not very keen on cd update. Have a few queries on solaris OS live upgrade. No sign of update6. Probably installation media has to be ordered?
You should just read what is written on the page See document ID Solaris10 and pxeLinux. I want to run solaris10 with my pxelinux server i put on pxelinux.
