Mounting the Installation Media

If you are installing using a DVD, mount the DVD.

The location of the mount command is site-specific and may differ from the instructions shown here. If you cannot mount the disc drive using the path shown, check your operating system documentation or contact your system administrator.

The operating system automatically mounts the CD. Log in as "sybase." If CD-reading errors occur, check your operating system kernel to make sure that the ISO 9660 option is turned on. If you have previously installed a Sybase CD on your system, the # sign interferes with the installation process. Before installing your current CD, either:
  • Restart your system, or,
  • Eject the CD. Delete the Volume Label file in /vol/dsk, and reinsert the CD.
