Is there any better way, in a bash script, to pipe both stdout and stderr from an application other than using a subshell? So far the only way that I've thought of to do it is: (command parm1 ... 2>&1) | othercommand -- Q: What do theoretical physicists drink beer from? A: Ein Stein. Maranatha!

Sles 9 sp4 to sles10 sp2 upgrades

2009-01-08 Thread Marcy Cortes
