I wanted to update the DVD player in my Solaris9/U30 to see if some
issues I had were taken care of. So, reading

I stopped volmgt, checked the current version of the drive

# iostat -E | grep DVD
Vendor: TOSHIBA Product: DVD-ROM SD-M1401 Revision: 1007 Serial No:

And tried to run the patch program

# ./optdload

I haven't gone through that procedure before, but the patch README
lists a '-v' (verbose) option for optdload - does that reveal more

where it hangs (or post the output here, maybe someone else can read
it).
