Enable Desktop on Oracle Solaris

11.4

March 30, 2020Oracle Solaris 11 installation has multiple options to

choose for installation of an Operating Environment,
but mostly Oracle Solaris text install media is used and this

installation media doesn't offer the GUI Desktop Environment by

default after the installation.

This blog post will explain how we can enable the desktop for

Oracle Solaris 11.4 operating system, after the completion of

installation.

We have to install "solaris-desktop" package and reboot the machine

and GUI desktop will be enabled for the Operating System.

In this blog post my virtual machine is connected to the internet and

hence I am able to use available pupblic repository for package

installation, if in case internet is not available for the server/machine

then we have configure the local/Server repository for the

installation.

Follow the below steps for desktop package installation:
