This is not a simple task. Adding or compiling modules is a tricky feat when it comes to 2.4 kernels. It requires you compile the entire kernel yourself before. I have used a diskless machine, with an NFS mount as the place where I have kept all persistent data. Mounted it at /tmp/mnt directory. Preparations…
I encountered an interesting bug/feature of RHCS on RHEL4. A snip of my configuration looks like this: <resources> <fs device=”/dev/mapper/mpath6p1″ force_fsck=”1″ force_umount=”1″ fstype=”ext3″ name=”share_prd” mountpint=”/share_prd” options=”” self_fence=”0″ fsid=”02001″/> <nfsexport name=”nfs export4″/> <nfsclient name=”all ro” target=”192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0″ options=”ro,no_root_sqush,sync”/> <nfsclient name=”app1″ target=”app1″ options=”rw,no_root_squash,sync”/> </resources> <service autostart=”1″ domain=”prd” name=”prd” nfslock=”1″> <fs ref=”share_prd”> <nfsexport ref=”nfs export 4″> <nfsclient ref=”all ro”/>…

So you can feel free to comment whenever and however you want. I was disconnected for too long…
I was required to create a self-contained, single DVD to automate the installation of Solaris 10 on x86_64. I could not find any up-to-date straight forward guide which can explain how to do it, so I do it here. This is not an explanation for dummies, so you must know (to some degree, of course)…
