Jumpstart installs more then SUNWCmreq cluster

Hi,

I've encountered something odd, I recently created a simple profile that looks like:

install_typeinitial_install

system_typestandalone

partitioningexplicit

cluster SUNWCmreq

filesys rootdisk.s0 15360/

filesys rootdisk.s1 4096swap

filesys rootdisk.s3 15360/var

As you can see I'm declaring the SUNWCreq cluster, yet when I perform the install I'm getting far more installed that the mreq cluster. In fact it looks like it's installing SUNWCall.

Anyone seen anything like this before?

Well, the cluster you should use in this case is SUNWCreq, which is the required/minimal installation.

You specified "SUNWCmreq", which is an internal cluster and not selectable by your profile;

METACLUSTER=SUNWCmreq

NAME=Minimal Core System Support

DESC=Internal private metacluster not installable by end users.

VENDOR=Sun Microsystems, Inc.

HIDDEN=y

REQUIRED=y

I can imagine that if you specify an unknown/invalid cluster the installation will default to SUNWCall, i'ld suggest that you use SUNWCreq rather than SUNWCmreq.
