The best option might be to do a complete "nightly" (a script used to build OpenSolaris) and BFU the machine. You can find instructions on doing this here: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/tools/building_opensolaris/ Once you have set up the build environment, you could try going to that directory and running "make install", but that might not always work. You might have to make and install dependencies manually before that. A nightly will handle this for you. Having said that, it seems like a lot of work for what you are trying to achieve. Will be useful to get a feel of building OpenSolaris, but it might be more productive to post a query in the Sun Studio forums, as Ananth suggested. Somebody there might be able to point you to an existing dbx patch. Patching an app is waaay easier than patching the kernel! :) Venky.
