I just pulled and applied SP2 today, and noticed that the link (ln) lines
are commented out of the postpatch script. Even though, my log file still
has the aforementioned errors. The same errors appeared in SP1 (although
you would have to read the patchadd log file to see them). I contacted CP
about the errors, and they said the errors were normal. I decided to look
at the InstallU script (and sub-scripts) and saw that the output of the
patchadd for SP1 was sent to /dev/null instead of the console. Pretty
tricky.

Subject: [FW1] SP2 upgrade not working (it is now :)
Well, just found the problem to my own question.
FW-1 requires the binary /usr/ucb/ln on Solaris
installations, even though there is a perfectly
good /bin/ln binary it could use. It appears
FW-1 4.1 will install and run fine without
/usr/ucb/ln, however the patch upgrade SP2
will barf if you did not install FW-1 4.1
with /usr/ucb/ln (the kernel modules in /etc/modules
has to be linked to /opt/CPfw1-41/boot/).
So, for you Solaris users, make sure you have
/usr/ucb/ln installed, or at least do this for
a fix.
ln -s /bin/ln /usr/ucb/ln
I'll update my documentation for Minimized Solaris
builds for FW-1 4.1
Offhand, anyone know the SUNW package name that has
/usr/ucb/ln for Solaris8?
'pkgchk -l -p /usr/ucb/ln` will give you the answer,
just don't have a Solaris8 system with /usr/ucb/ln
installed.
Thanks!

Subject: SP2 upgrade not working
I'm attempting to upgrade my 4.1 SP1 system to
SP2. However, the SP2 upgrade is giving me errors,
any words of wisdom? SP1 was working fine, not
sure why I am getting these errors. Yes, both
fw1bootd and fw1boot are both in /etc/init.d :)
Currently running on Solaris 8 Sparc
