How to create an Ignite Boot helper DVD from ISO
For two step booting (as was previously required for Itanium systems) use the following command:
/opt/ignite/data/scripts/examples/make_media_install -r B.11.31 -m/var/opt/ignite/bryan
NOTE: Be sure you have enough room in the -m (Media Directory) that you intend to write to.(You can also specify -r as B.11.23 for example)
CAUTION: Be sure to create this on a system that has the same version of Ignite-UX as you intend to use for the recovery... whether that be from tape or from an Ignite server using make_net_recovery.
This will create the ISO file, and burn it if you have a DVD-RW, but you can transfer this ISO image file to your PC to burn it from here if you do not have a DVD-RW connected to your HP-UX Unix System.
Output will look like this:
/opt/ignite/data/scripts/examples/make_media_install -r B.11.31 -m /var/opt/ignite/bryan
WARNING: Non-default -m option value specified along with default -p option value; the default directory could run out of disk space, should both options be given?
=== Step 1: Make Ignite-UX config files for golden image archive(s) ===
=== Step 2: Copy SD depot(s) and make config files for them ===
=== Step 3: Make a boot-image (LIF volume) ===
+ /opt/ignite/bin/make_medialif -a -r B.11.31 -f /opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/config -l /var/opt/ignite/media/pseudo_root/bootvol.lif
+ /opt/ignite/bin/instl_adm -b -F /var/opt/ignite/media/pseudo_root/bootvol.lif
=== Step 4: Make ISO media image ===
+ cp -p /opt/ignite/boot/Rel_B.11.31/EFI_CD_image /var/opt/ignite/media/pseudo_root
+ /opt/ignite/lbin/mkisofs -U -max-iso9660-filenames -no-emul-boot -b EFI_CD_image -R -eltorito-alt-boot -no-emul-boot -b bootvol.lif -o /var/opt/ignite/bryan/image.iso /var/opt/ignite/media/pseudo_root
Warning: creating filesystem that does not conform to ISO-9660.
Warning: ISO-9660 filenames longer than 31 may cause buffer overflows in the OS.
Size of boot image is 10240 sectors -> No emulation
Size of boot image is 995440 sectors -> No emulation
