Quite correct. Barbara, the one thing I note in the text that Tim quoted is that "install the current OpenSolaris operating system" seems somewhat vague; I'd suggest something like "install the CD contents", since that's all that actually can happen in this version. The links and such that you added based on my other feedback are helpful, thanks.
