Patch Installation Instructions:
--------------------------------
 
For Solaris 2.0-2.6 releases, refer to the Install.info file and/or
the README within the patch for instructions on using the generic
'installpatch' and 'backoutpatch' scripts provided with each patch.
 
For Solaris 7-10 releases, refer to the man pages for instructions
on using 'patchadd' and 'patchrm' scripts provided with Solaris.
Any other special or non-generic installation instructions should be
described below as special instructions.  The following example
installs a patch to a standalone machine:
 
       example# patchadd /var/spool/patch/104945-02
 
The following example removes a patch from a standalone system:
 
       example# patchrm 104945-02
 
For additional examples please see the appropriate man pages.

Special Install Instructions:
-----------------------------
 
NOTE 1:  This patch must be installed in single user mode.  In addition,
         in order for this patch to take effect, you must reboot the target
         system after installation.
 
NOTE 2:  In order to obtain the complete "Product Registry CLI Revision"
         feature, please also install the following patch:
 
         114483-01 (or greater)  Product Registry CLI Revision
 
NOTE 3:  In order to get the complete fix for bugid 4733324 (Install
         extensions for WAN install (PSARC/2002/382)), the SUNWwbsup
         package must first be installed on the target system.  Failure
         to do so will result in admintool(1M) failing to start.  The
         SUNWwbsup package can be found on the Solaris 9 Update 5 (12/2003)
         installation media or newer Solaris 9 updates.  In addition, the
         Sol9 9/05 image can be obtained from the following URL:
 
         http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/9
 
NOTE 4:  In order to get the fixes for bugids:
 
         4834450 RFE: Jumpstart does not recognize free as a valid size with
                 mirror keyword
         4985741 differential flash not working
         4879767 OS Installation with NIS causes file system corruption
         5050613 Install fails on SS20/SS5
 
         this patch must also be applied to the Miniroot, which is located
         in the Boot directory on Net Install servers and Boot servers.
 
         In addition, the Miniroot needs to be patched on both locations.
 
         Please also note that a patched Net Install server will create
         patched Boot servers.  In other words, if you patch a Net Install
         server and subsequently make a Boot server from it by using the
         'setup_install_server' command, the newly-created Boot server
         will incorporate the patch applied to the Net Install server.
 
         Use 'patchadd -C' for this patch, rather than the generic invocation.
 
         Example:
 
                # patchadd -C <path_to_image>/Tools/Boot .
 
         Remove the Miniroot patch using something similar to:
 
                # patchrm -C <path_to_image>  <patchid>
