Hi, Peter

This is a common error caused by pkgadd problems on unpatched Solaris
8 and 9.

Make sure that you have the latest versions of the patches mentioned on
the blastwave howto page.

For Solaris 8, the heading is actually missing from the web page, so
they are:

Solaris 8:
Sparc: 110934
X86: 110935

Solaris 9:
Sparc: 113713
X86: 114568

Let us know how you progress.

Dennis, would you fix the heading on the web page?

Alex
