I don't know if it's just because I'm using CD-R's instead of real CD's, or something in the actual data or the way the ISO image was created. Maybe an idea would be to download the previous HW update ISO's and try with those. >The important thing is, unzip the files on a Solaris system. I did that. I downloaded the ISO zip file again too, then burnt another copy. Identical result.
