A. Table of Integrated Bugs in the Solaris 10 Operating System
The Solaris 10 Release Notes contain installation and runtime problem details. Also included are end-of-software support statements for the Solaris 10 Operating System.
Note - This Solaris release supports systems that use the SPARC and x86 families of processor architectures: UltraSPARC, SPARC64, AMD64, Pentium, and Xeon EM64T. The supported systems appear in the Solaris 10 Hardware Compatibility List at http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl. This document cites any implementation differences between the platform types.
In this document the term “x86” refers to 64-bit and 32-bit systems manufactured using processors compatible with the AMD64 or Intel Xeon/Pentium product families. For supported systems, see the Solaris 10 Hardware Compatibility List.
These notes are for users and system administrators who install and use the Solaris 10 software.
