Hi,

In section 5.2 of the Developer Reference is explained how to use Cap Eye 
Install to generate a kernel "package". Except when I follow the instructions 
to the letter, I get a nice message:

[i]
pw at denver:/build/opensolaris-b20$ Install -G kernel.b20 -k sun4u
Cannot find kernel sources -- $SRC not set
Install failed
[/i]

Maybe it would be worth to mention that this command works only when you've set 
$SRC to usr/src like this:

[i]
pw at denver:/build/opensolaris-b20$ SRC=usr/src Install -G kernel.b20 -k sun4u
Creating tarfile /tmp/Install.pw/Install.sun4u.tar
[/i]

Or when you're in the kernel source directory for target architecture:

[i]
pw at denver:/build/opensolaris-b20$ cd usr/src/uts/sun4u/
pw at denver:/build/opensolaris-b20/usr/src/uts/sun4u$ Install -G kernel.b20 -k 
sun4u
Creating tarfile /tmp/Install.pw/Install.sun4u.tar
[/i]

Another possibility would be of course that I misunderstood something and that 
I'm following the wrong procedure :)

Otherwise I have no complains about the Developer Reference (yet). It's very 
nice and complete. I wish more projects would explain things so clearly for 
novice users.
