software install

[MAJBlaine]

I'm trying to figure out it I want to take on a job for a server install. It looks fairly easy: Sun e250, w/ 2 GB ram, Solaris 2.8, etc

The client wants to also install two things:
Java Embedded Server 1.1
Solaris PC Netlink 1.2

Can anyone tell me what a good estimate default install time are for these two pieces of software? The docs do not say too much. Also, if you know if any pitfalls, I'd like to hear about them.

Thanks,
Blaine

Solaris PC Netlink 1.2 took about an hour on our Sunfire 280R / Dual 900 Sparc. (with 2GB RAM)

As far as the other, never installed it.

Both installs go pretty quick. The Pc netlink configuration may take a bit longer depending on what you want to share Too bad I.T. is not cash business
