Hi Mike

I think I mis-read suns instructions and assumed it would work for the
CD images : -

http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/download_instruction.jsp

	The correct syntax for the cat command is: "cat file1 file2 ...
[fileN] > file" where file1, file2, fileN are the 	download images
and "file" is the .iso file you are creating.

	So for example, to create the ISO image for the Solaris 10 5/08
DVD for SPARC, type:

	cat sol-10-u5-ga-sparc-dvd-iso-a sol-10-u5-ga-sparc-dvd-iso-b >
sol-10-GA-sp-dvd.iso

	The result is a true ISO image that you can use to burn a DVD.
The multiple segments you downloaded separately will 	not work until
they are concatenated as described. 

You cat the two DVD images together not the five CD images.

Best regards

Ben
