Hi, Thanks to all that made this really nice howto. BTW, after this procedure is it still possible to boot into snv_134 environment, i.e will the grub.conf be updated to have have snv_134 and snv_142 boot entries? Thanks, Bruno On 21-6-2010 8:15, Hernan Saltiel wrote: > Thanks to Rich Lowe, I k

Thanks to Rich Lowe, I know what I did in the wrong way. Here is what needs to be done in order to have a working onnv_142 OpenSolaris: a) Install OpenSolaris snv_134 (this is my case only). b) Create a directory where to put the untar'ed, unbzip2'ed binaries: 1) mkdir -p /export/repo c) Unta
