SUMMARY: Install Sun patch 112438-02 on Solaris 8 failed

Hi,

I got many replies, and Casper Dik, Eugene Schmidt,
Russell Page, and Anthony A. D. Talltree pointed out
the unzip program I used was not the right one.

I did not have time to fix it now, so copied one from
other system, then everything was ok.

Thank you very much!
