Patch Installation Instructions: 
--------------------------------
 
For Solaris 8 release, refer to the man pages for instructions on
using 'patchadd' and 'patchrm' scripts provided with Solaris.
Any other special or non-generic installation instructions should be
described below as special instructions.  The following example
installs a patch to a standalone machine:
 
       example# patchadd /var/spool/patch/109401-14
 
The following example removes a patch from a standalone system:
 
       example# patchrm 109401-14
 
For additional examples please see the appropriate man pages.
Special Install Instructions: 
-----------------------------
After installing this patch, kdmconfig may be run to update the
X Server device configuration.
 
For bug 4331923 kdmconfig must be put in the mini-root as well as the install
image.  The version in the mini-root is what will be used by jumpstart, so
this must be patched for this fix to work during jumpstart.
 
If installing for Intel 810 or 815 support, see Important Note, above.
