Problem Description: THIS PATCH DOES NOT APPLY TO 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.1.3, 4.1.3_U1, CMW 1.0, OR TRUSTED SOLARIS 1.1 SYSTEMS. This patch contains a fix for the following bug(s): Note: In the following lists of files, the export/exec path prefix is used to load files into the appropriate places on the machine. For example, export/exec/kvm/ is used to refer to /usr/kvm on a machine where is the native architecture. Bug: 1174361 Desc: Fix to stop PROM password leaks on "sun4" arch. machines. Bug: 4035323 Desc: Fix eeprom to work properly with system dates of 2000 or greater Files: export/exec/sun4/kvm/sys/sun4/OBJ/mem.o export/exec/sun4/kvm/eeprom Patch Installation Instructions: 1. Boot the machine single user, clean the disks, and start a csh(1). > b -s or ok boot -s # fsck -f -p # exec csh # source /.cshrc # source /.login 2. Load this patch in a location that has disk space. This example assumes that /var is a separate partition and that the patch is delivered on tape. # mount /var # cd /var # mkdir -p patches/ # cd patches/ # tar xvf /dev/rst0 3. Install the patch and check the "log" for errors. # ./install_patch |& tee log # vi log 3a. This patch contains changes to the machine's kernel. In order for the changes to take effect, the kernel must be reconfigured. To reconfigure the kernel, follow the procedure in the README file, located in the /export/exec/kvm//sys//conf directory for each architecture. 4. Reboot the machine. # cd / # umount -at cfs # sync; sync; sync; reboot
