Thanks a lot for posting. I find that new technology on the SDLC quite annoying.

It used to be possible to copy/paste the URLs from the laptop (non Solaris) to the server (Solaris) and then wget the files straight onto the server where I needed the iso image (I do the Live Upgrade straight from the iso, never burn to DVD (save the trees or something like that)). The URL used to contain all authentication information necessary, now all that gets hidden away into cookies that I cannot easily copy over.

I always found this obsession to have to use to web browser to get to the updates annoying, oh that damned click do accept the license ..., but I suffered it. I so wish everyone within Sun would have to go through that same web page to get to the iso and I bet it would be changed to lend itself more easily to automation!

 The SDLC has changed how the downloads works.

  Now you choose the Platform first and then see a list of all
  the downloads (CD and DVD).

I believe I fixed all the old links so they now point to the right
place, but if you have trouble please send a note to website-discuss and
I'll make any corrections.

Also, for anyone using the old

 /os/downloads/sol_ex_dvd/

shortcut on your blogs, it will still work for a while but I will remove
it after Build 85. The new shortcut is

/os/downloads/sol_ex/
