[rescue] Update on Solaris DVD-writing

[William Enestvedt]

I know we've discussed writing DVDs on Suns in the past, so I thought
I'd re-post exciting bit of news for readers who may not have heard of a
little ol' thing called the Sun Managers List.

> I opened a case with Sun and after a couple of weeks of running

>
> The binary will be released as a patch in about 1 1/2 months. The
> bugid no. is 5039437 for those who have a Sunsolve account.  The
> release of the patch with the new binary can be tracked via this
