Components of the Solaris 8 Media Kit

Sun Software Service Plan customers are entitled to download new releases of the Solaris Operating System (OS) from the Online Support Center by default. You may also purchase a media part number for physical shipment of new releases. Updates are shipped on request then.

The Solaris 8 OS media kit contains not only the Solaris 8 OS software but also an extensive set of bonus software. The information on below pages list the components of the Solaris 8 OS media kit, and shows the support provided for these components under SunSpectrum Service Plan and Software Service Plan contracts.
