Sorry, you'll have to wait. Testing upgrade by installing x86 bits first and then expecting the packaging system to do something rational when installing sparc as a upgrade is not likely to work. Build 104 or 105 will be available soon for both sparc and x86. - Bart -- Bart Smaalders Solaris Kernel Performance barts at cyber.eng.sun.com http://blogs.sun.com/barts "You will contribute more with mercurial than with thunderbird."
