So what is the elegant solution to update the system if there is a kernel bug in the current release snv_111b? Should I switch from the release to the development version? Normally they should be available patches to patch only the kernel to gurantee that a release is stable. I guess this is the case with Solaris 10. Unfortunately my hosting provider don't support Solaris, they support only OpenSolaris. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
