Solaris 9 Media SUMMARY

Hey Tim,

I did download the ISO's for both x86 and Intel, and cd2 ((1 of 2) for the
sixth time) doesn't read because of some missing magic number, I even put
the spiffy labels, on it. I use the same cd creator as what is
recommended. Disk 2, seems to be an ISO, and the web install won't read
it.

Sun has plain p*ssed me off this time, what are they thinking? How many
people actually have DVD capable sun boxes?
 If their was a choice for CD or DVD, I didn't see it, and I usually am
pretty good at seeing discrepancies. Too much wasted time.

I don't see any option BUT the DVD if you want the extra software.

Sorry to rant , but I am really spun up,,,, what a mess just trying to
go to 9. I have two U30's at home, and at work some 4800's, 450's, and a
bunch of pizza boxes, and I am not sure how many have DVD capability.

Talk to you tomorrow all.

Nope, but you can download the ISO's and burn your own CD's.
