Juergen,
       Well i have seen the segfault before ,but not
sure if it is the same package name everytime ,i can
confirm that after a couple of retries
Secondly ,what does the first few lines in the
install_log strike you as? 

Oh, the 'operation not applicable' msg was due to the
fact that after feeding in my driver thru the DU
(option 5) ,i was doing Ctrl-C and then returning to
the main menu instead of typing 'e' to end the
installation , once i did that i proceeded to the next
stage where the entire installation went well(atleast
seemed to ) and took me to the 'reboot' screen ..Not
sure of the real reason for that though ,sorry about
mentioning that earlier
This is the msg i get on reboot 
********************* BEGIN **************************
Booting 'Solaris 10 8/07 s10x_u4wos_12b X86'

kernel /platform/i86pc/multiboot
    
[Multibootelf,<0x1000000:0x12b07:0x12909>,shtab=0x1027258,entry=0x1000000]

module /platform/i86pc/boot_archive

Error 28: Selected item cannot fit into memory 

Press any key to continue..

************************* END ************************

Do you want me to send you a gzip version of my pkg
base directory just so you can validate if the
packaging is right ,or do you completely rule out any
packaging issues here?

Thanks
Som
