Old 06-06-2010
As i said i cannot download it from SunSolve , also the supplemental media is lost and this package is installed on another system so i want to repackage it from that system and install it into the other system .
At first i thought
Code:
pkgtrans

can do the job . if someone knows any method to achieve what i'm trying to do , by (copying , downloading, install it from the cd's , etc...)
that would be a great assist
