Sender: Ik Kim (Ik.Kim@Corp.Sun.COM) My name is Ik Kim working for localization group at SunSoft. We don't sell locale packages separately. The only way you can have Japan system running on your machine is to buy Japaneses Solaris2 CD and go from there. You can either install Japanese CD using installation scheme or mount CD and selectively pkgadd Japanese specific packages. I suggest the first one because you may have to repartition your disk anyway. -- ikkim@sun.com (Ik Kim 'Ike') > >I would like to obtain the Japanese Feature Package from Sun Microsystems for >Solaris 2.2.
