(Summary) : Problems while installing 108528-29 for Sol8 machine

The problem was with the permissions of /sbin.  Find the quote from
Casper.Dik@Sun.COM who has provided this solution.

>root@ctlorabkp01:/# ls -ld / /sbin /sbin/sh
>drwxr-xr-x  55 root     root        2048 Jan 13 15:18 /
>dr--r--r--   2 root     sys         1024 Mar  6  2004 /sbin
>-r-xr-xr-x   2 root     root      306636 Nov  6  2002 /sbin/sh

So we finally drilled down to the problem.  The permissions on /sbin
are incorrect.  They are shipped as "755".  They should be at least 555.

So "chmod 755 /sbin" should fix your problem.

I get following errors while applying Sol8 Kernel patch 108528-29. I am
currently at 108528-27 and
need to apply this before I can go to 117350-28.  I got only one clue from
sunsolve that 109079-01
has conflict with 108528-29 but I do not have that one installed anyway.

This appears to be an attempt to install the same architecture and
version of a package which is already installed.  This installation
will attempt to overwrite this package.

pkgadd: ERROR: exec of /sbin/sh failed, errno=13
pkgadd: ERROR: checkinstall script did not complete successfully
Dryrun complete.
No changes were made to the system.
