solution is missing O/S missing components - we thought the demo machine we were given had everything on , but it didn't.

The following procedure fixes this problem :

• get CD containing operating system
• need to mount as fs type ufs, not cdfs. Example of /etc/fstab entry :

/dev/rz5c /cdrom_ufs ufs ro,noversion 0 0

• cd /
• mkdir cdrom_ufs
• mount /cdrom_ufs
• setld -l /cdrom_ufs/ALPHA/BASE
• a command-line interactive dialog follows.

  I installed : OSFINCLUDE440

                OSFLIBA440
                OSFPGMR440
                OSFCMPLRS440

• after that OAS installs.

Next problem is that the web-based administration pages are unusable, the browser generally simply just crashes, even browsing docs, with "memory fault core dumped". (Can fix that by turning off Java, but need Java on to actually do the admin I think)

Will try upgrading Browser to 4.5.1 from 4.5.

(Oh, also I can't tnsping the database from OAS, even though I can from the DB home)
