First install of 5.4: 2 questions
(Document link: Mike Hammock
The trick seems to be that when the right steps are followed, the RSU
envelopes land on the MAINT 500 disk as by magic (because the

(in our case, DVD). But there was no RSU in any form in the shipment.
Really? Are you *sure* that there weren't two DVDs in the case? As
