Hi,
        We are hoping to upgrade our Ultrix systems from 4.1->4.2
using DEC's CDROM Ultrix distribution.  The only CDROM drive that we
have is sitting on a SPARC.  Is it possible to use this drive to do
our update?  How?

If it is not possible to do this across the network, does anyone know
who makes/sells a cable that will let us attach Sun's CDROM drive to a
DECstation?

Thanks for any help/information....

                Jeff
