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?
