It can not. >Can I refer to the update file directly from SILO? Dunno, but maybe something to try. I haven't thought of it as I was in the same situation. >I have an empty hard drive, how can I format it so that it's suitable for an >OBP upgrade? [del] I'll tell you what I've tried and what eventually worked: Network boot: In the release notes of the patch, this was listed as possible installation type. I can netboot almost anything here, from DECstations to SUNs and Alphas, but absolutely nothing worked. I finally installed Solaris on a spare disk, copied the patch into the root-fs and booted it from PROM. That worked with my Ultra-2. HTH, Uli -- Dipl. Inf.
