Where can I obtain Solaris 2/x86 patches?
The Solaris x86 driver updates can be obtained by HTTP from:ftp://sunsolve.Sun.COM/
A listing sorted by release is available by clicking on "Patches"
at the SunSolve web page,
http://sunsolve.Sun.COM/
Pointers to patches, including one huge *_x86_Recommended.tar.Z
file for each release. This directory is publicly accessible--it
doesn't require you to be a contract customer. Patches are also
available locally at many SunSites.
The "showrev -p" command shows what patches you have installed.
All files replaced by a patch are saved under /var/sadm/patch/
or /var/sadm/pkg/
