Solaris 10 upgrade exiting ( caught signal 11)
Hi,
I am pretty new to Solaris and am trying to upgrade from the OBP.
I go through the process of booting from the cdrom, entering all necessary information and running the upgrade. The system completes analysis and then fail with the
EXITING (caught signal 11) error
I believe that signal 11 points to a hardware problem so I ran some diagnostics from the OBP but that didn't shed any light on the issue.
I was wondering if anyone else had experienced a similar issue?
Cheers

nal is sent again to the process to ensure that it terminates.
