Hi Folks, I have downloaded an ISO image of sun Solaris 5.10 sparc 64 bits form the oracle website but unable to burn it on dvd as a bootable disk. All Arial Fonts. I tried it using 'power iso' and 'ultr-iso' but getting an error msg as 'non bootable image'. However I still burned it as a bootable disk and tried to boot from the DVD but it’s not working. Can you please help me from where to download the ISO and how to boot from it on a standalone server? Hoping for a quick response.

Thanks in advance. Regards, Farhan. Scott Alan Miller wrote: farhan.ziya wrote: There is no reason of using version 5.10 but one of our employee has mentioned in his email to install this version. However we can go with version 11. Please help me which iso to download in order t be able to boot and install it.

10 is very old. Like installing Windows 2003 today.

No, it's not like installing Windows 2003 today. Oracle will support Solaris 10 through January, 2021, which means they plan to support it longer than Microsoft got stuck supporting XP. I agree if there is no requirement to install 10 then Farhan should go with 11, but please don't make a statement like this. If you feel 11 is a better fit, you should say something other than '10 is very old'. The three things I can say about 11 that might make it a better choice are: 1- It looks and feels like Linux in many ways so it will be an easy transition for people who are already familiar. 2- For dedicated infrastructure servers, there are less required packages for the base OS than with previous versions of Solaris so it can run leaner. 3- Solaris 11 supports more x86 hardware than any other version of Solaris.

Three things I can say about 10 that might make it a better choice are: 1- It has much better native backup tools. 2- It is a ridiculously stable platform. 3- It runs better on older hardware because it has less than half the memory requirements than 11, which is a RAM hog by comparison. If you have Dell or HP servers, you can download the ISO for Solaris x86. It runs very well on these machines and supports almost all available hardware.
