Synopsis: SunOS 5.8_x86: kernel patch
Date: May/13/2009
Install Requirements: After installing this patch on an active boot environment, the system will be in a potentially inconsistent state until a reconfigure reboot is performed. Unless otherwise specified in the Special Install Instructions below, it is normally safe to apply further patches prior to initiating the reboot due to the relatively small footprint of the patch utilities. Normal operations must not be resumed until after the reconfigure reboot is performed.
Use Single User Mode (run level S) when installing this patch on an active boot environment. An alternative may be specified in the Special Install Instructions.
