You assume correctly!

I installed S9 for a number of reasons:

* This will be my main production server, and I have a rule
about not using pre-FCS OSes on those, no moatter how tempting
it may be!

* I need to be able to run sunpci 2.3.2 on this machine, which
panics S10 build 63!

If it wasn't for the kernel panic, I'd be very tempted to run S10
on this machine. Maybe it'll be fixed in the next build...
