Well, I was very wrong: the size is a little over 27M. Besides the
/usr/sbin/stm/* tree, there is also a /usr/sbin/diag/* tree, and it makes
additions to /usr/sbin, and the startup files in /sbin/init.d.
The bundle for s700 machines is:
OnlineDiag B.10.20 HPUX 10.0 Support Tools Bundle
size in Kb: 27111
- Set up the NFS mount for the LROM
If you have HP automounter (it exists by default in 10.20)
follow the "A" instructions. Otherwise, follow the "B"
instructions.
A) I recommend using the HPUX 10.20 automounter. In SAM:
- "Networking and Communications->
Networked File Systems->
Mounted Remote File Systems"
- "Actions/Enable Automounter" if it isn't already
- "Actions/Add Remote File System/Using NFS Automounter"
- Fill in the values:
Local Directory Name: /lromcd
Remote Server Name: hp.cso.uiuc.edu
Remote Directory Name: /pub/lrom
It will add/change the defaults as you enter information.
One (annoying) thing is that my hostname alias will
change from "hp" to "locutus". Not really an issue.
B) If you don't have the automounter for some reason:
- Add the NFS mount to your /etc/fstab with the following
line:
locutus.cso.uiuc.edu:/pub/lrom /lromcd nfs ro,nosuid,soft,bg 0 0
- And then type "mount /lromcd".
- Install the LROM bundle
Either run "swinstall" or use SAM ("Software Management->
Install Software to Local Host") and do the following:
- Fill in the values for "Network Directory/CDROM":
Source Host: hp.cso.uiuc.edu
Source Depot Path: /pub/sw1020
- Select "LROM (HP LaserROM/UX)" and do "Actions/Install"
- When it's finished, quit out, and edit the file
"/opt/lrom/config/.lromrc". Change the line that reads
cdpath=/cdrom
to read
cdpath=/lromcd
- You're done.
To access it, type "lrom". If the PATH hasn't been set
correctly, it can be found in "/opt/lrom/bin/lrom". The useful stuff is
in "Series 700 10.* Manuals". I usually use a "Search" to find what I'm
looking for.
