- Actually, Sun is pushing Solaris 2.1 all over the place. Solaris 2.0 was
- early-access, and has been replaced (on Sparc, at least).
-
- Sun, BTW, decided that they would not provide an upgrade path from Solaris 2.0
- to Solaris 2.1. You could upgrade from SunOS 4.1, or do a fresh install.
- Really. "Tough Luck" was basically the response I got.
-
- Sigh. Sun needs to replace S-U-N with I-B-M :-<
