Be aware of the following conventions that are used in this book.
When following steps or using examples, be sure to type double-quotes
("), left single-quotes (`), and
right single-quotes (') exactly as shown.
The key referred to as Return is labeled Enter on some keyboards.
It is assumed that the root path includes the /sbin, /usr/sbin, /usr/bin, and /etc directories,
so the steps in this book show the commands in these directories without absolute
path names. Steps that use commands in other, less common, directories show
the absolute path in the example.
The examples in this book are for a basic SunOS Solaris Express 8/06 software
installation without the Binary Compatibility Package installed and without /usr/ucb in the path.
If /usr/ucb is included in a search path,
it should always be at the end of the search path. Commands like ps or df are duplicated in /usr/ucb with different
formats and different options from the SunOS Solaris Express 8/06 commands.
