ok, here's the scoop with this. hopped on my Solaris 8 machine, and that
didn't find anything. but it does work on the other machines, and here is
why: the driver package stopped being called SUNWmd when SUN had to start
making 64-bit stuff, so with 64-bit aware copies of DiskSuite (beats me as to
which ones that is, 4.2 maybe? 4.1 doesn't seem to have a clue) the two choices
for packages are SUNWmdr (32-bit) and SUNWmdx (64-bit)
so, your method did work, i just had to modify it for the, uhm, four machines
here that run Solaris 8. :)
cheers,
