ok so i've just learned the hard way not to strip solaris executables
with gnu strip.
the good news (i suppose) is that /usr/ucb and /sbin are fine; i just
messed up /usr/bin. the other good news is that the machine's services
seem to be running ok, and i have a shell window open.
the bad news is that i have no cdrom in the machine (a sparcstation 5)
at the moment. any suggestions on a way to recover from this, and is
there a way of restoring these packages without reinstalling the OS
entirely? presumably i could restore all of the necessary packages if i
borrow a cdrom again and do it from there.
presumably there isn't an easy way to obtain these packages over the
net, due to licensing restrictions?
