Hi, Can someone point the web links to download the ISO CD Image files for Solaris 8 installation on intel machines. I downloaded the 'sol-8-10_00-install-fcs-bin-ia-ml' such files and they don't. Oct 16, 2001 - Creating a bootable CD from solaris 8 iso file. Created from the sol-8-u5-install-sparc.iso file downloaded from Sun bootable using either Nero. I have downloaded the Installation.zip file from Sun's site for Solaris 8 02/04 Release for Sparc Unzipped the downloaded file to create.iso image file. When I type in 'boot cdrom' at OK prompt on SunSparc, it comes back with a message.

Hi everyone,
Im new to Solaris and am just about to install Solaris 9 on an old Sparc based machine with Solaris 8.
My friend gave me the ISOs for V9, and now, i have them sitting on my Vista, and i have to start writing bootable CDs of the same. But Im not quite sure how to go about doing the same.
The files that i have are Solaris_9_Sparc.iso and solaris_9_Sparc_2.iso, which seem to be part 1 and part 2 on the installation aspect of it. There is another iso, MULTI_ICD_SOL_SPARC_cs.iso, 128 KB , which has the following files on it.. ADD_INSTALL_CLIENT., BOOT., MODIFY_INSTALL_SERVER., COPYRIGHT., RM_INSTALL_CLIENT., _VOLUME.inf
Now i tried burning the CDs the conventional way(3, one for each ISO) using PowerISO, Disk Creator and MagicISO, and tried to give a 'boot cdrom' and it says something of the order of
'The CD loaded does not appear to be executable'
Is there something I'm missing here?
Alternatively I would be really grateful if someone points out to me exactly how to burn installation disks from ISOs.
I could really use some help!
Thank you,
AG
Download solaris 10 iso

I'm trying to boot Solaris 10 or Solaris 11 for SPARC using qemu-system-sparc64 but keep running into problems early on. I'm using the DVD images sol-10-u11-ga-sparc-dvd.iso and sol-11_2-text-sparc.iso available from SUN's^WOracle's web site.

Attempting Solaris 10:

Solaris 8 Iso

Attempting Solaris 11:

I have tried using the -cpu help option to find a supported CPU, but no matter what string I provide, it is not understood.

Has anyone gotten original Solaris 10 or 11 to boot with sparc64 under QEMU?What else should I try?

PS: It is not an option to buy SPARC hardware or emulate 32bit SPARC and ancient Solaris 9 or older or use Solaris x86.

Have been searching for this myself a while ago but unfortunately I did not succeed in starting Solaris 10 (or 11) using QEMU with sparc64. I stopped trying after I read the page http://wiki.qemu.org/download/qemu-doc.html#QEMU-System-emulator-for-non-PC-targets section 4.3 which states that the emulator is not usable but may boot some kernels.

Qemu-system-sparc64 will boot and run successfully only old versions of Solaris(7< 7 not included) and with custom bios(taken from old Sparc workstations).Of course you can try maybe with next releases versions like Solaris 8 or 9Remind that the kvm module is only for x86 architecture,so Sparc emulation will be really slow.This is a good how-to to see.
