Very cool background picture. Everything works fine from B98 except I have to empty my /opt fold first before update. Otherwise I'll run into the error: "pkg: image-update cannot be done on live image" Thanks, -Aubrey _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
