The /etc/release file was first introduced on Solaris 2.5.1 Hardware 4/97 and can be found on all subsequent Solaris versions.
The purpose of the /etc/release file is to easily determine the base OS or upgraded OS installed.
The /etc/release file is the same whether obtained from the installed operating system, the cdrom, or the installation image on hard disk.
EXAMPLE:
/etc/release
/cdrom/solaris_2_5_1_hw1197_sparc/s0/Solaris_2.5.1/SUNWsolnm/reloc/etc
image_path.../Solaris_2.5.1/SUNWsolnm/reloc/etc
Below are a listing of the contents for the specifIEd OS versions.

用了Solaris9 x86 Netscape的网页浏览简直快疯了，决定更换mozilla1.4，虽然是java，但在x86下的，感觉很象redhat，哈哈哈哈，， ：-） 阅读一些安装文档,把安装心得写了出来，以方便大家安装。
1、安装一些必要的软件,（注意安装顺序）哪里下载不用说吧！
gcc3.3
libiconv
atk
zlib
freetype
expat
fontconfig
pango
gtk
2、下载一个J2SE补丁
光盘上拷到本地硬盘上。#cp -R 10g_db_i.gz /export/home
在解压 #gunzip 10g_db_i.gz
#cpio -ivmd <10g_db_i
如果这时执行/export/home/db/Disk1/run*就会出现这样的错误提示：
Checking installer requirements...
Checking operating system version: must be 5.6, 5.7, 5.8 or 5.9. Actual 5.10

aInstall2004-10-26_09-45-32AM/installActions2004-10-26_09-45-32AM.log
想要解决这个问题就要在/export/home/db/Disk1/install里，修改oraparam.ini oraparam.var
修改如下：
vi oraparam.ini
#You can customise error message shown for failure through CERTIFIED_VERSION_FAI
LURE_MESSAGE
Solaris=5.6,5.7,5.8,5.9, 5.10 （就是添加5.10）
Linux=redhat-2.1AS
#HPUX=B.11.00
DecUnix=V5.1A,V5.1
AIX=5.1.0.0
vi oraparam.var
#You can customise error message shown for failure through CERTIFIED_VERSION_FAI
LURE_MESSAGE
Solaris=5.8,5.9, 5.10 （就是添加5.10）
Windows=4.0,5.0,5.1,5.2
Linux=redhat-2.1AS
HPUX=B.11.11
Decunix=V5.1A,V5.1
AIX=5.1.0.0
保存，在执行。./runInstaller 就OK了。
后续工作就不一一说明了。
