Thanks Mary ! Just that the AI_install info page[1] points to using a version of the package that doesn't have this fix in it yet. [1] http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/caiman/auto_install/AI_install_server_setup.html#ai_sparc_setup points to: pkgadd -d /net/indiana-build.central/export/home/sundar/ai_sparc SUNWinstalladm-tools I can understand that updating this page can lag behind development a bit. Hence the mails. Regards, Sean. . > > I was going to check the one that was integrated into 106 repo for x86 and > make sure that it works.
