5.2. - Quick Install
For those who need little explanation, here are minimal installations instructions based on the customary configuration:
# First time, create a specadm user account, then cd undefsectionspecadm mkdir spec6.05.03 # choose name based on release cd spec6.05.03 tar xvf .../spec_XXX.tar # use pathname of distribution # If an update, start with last version's parameters cp ../spec_YYY/install_data . # use pathname of previous distribution ./Install # as rootThe Install program will display the current installation parameters and prompt for changes. Use the command
./Install -d
to use the parameters from an existing
install_data
file, skipping the interactive prompts.
Once the software is installed, run the spec executable and type
config
to invoke the hardware configuration editor.
