Uhm yes. >I assume that we will need to keep the original files in /var/sadm/install >in order to have them writable in case we would like to install SVr4 package >in running install environment ? I's assuming that the contents file is empty (you're building from IPS packages?). In order to be able to add SVr4 packages, you will need a *writable* /var/sadm/install directory. The lockfiles and the door do not need to exist, not does the contents file. But the logfile is created in /var/sadm/install and the contents file is first written to a temporary file (t.contents) and then renamed into contents. Symlinks to writable files will not work. >ok - thank you very much for clarifying this ! You're welcome. Casper
