[6.2] R4k Indigo, Indy, Challenge S, and All Indigo2 Recommended Patch Set
(Last Updated: June 1, 1998)

Patch 1678 is only for the license_eoe 3.0; some systems will have older or
newer versions.

Do not install Patch 2278 unless the system is a FailSafe system.

If Patch 2861 is installed on diskless share trees, the MAKEDEV command must
be executed after the patch is installed, on each diskless client before it 
is rebooted, to avoid a client
panic:
        cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV

Patch 2777 has an incorrect statement of supported platforms.
   It should read:  
       1.1  Supported_Hardware_Platforms
       This patch contains bug fixes for all SGI systems supported
       in IRIX 6.2.

Under certain circumstances, problems may be seen when mounting resources
such as DOS filesysems or CD-ROM devices from another system over NFS. In a
similar vein, trying to execute programs off an NFS mounted partition in
a diskless configuration may fail. This problem is present in patch 2956
and is expected to be fixed in a new version of the patch. Users should
not install patch 2956 or revert to the previous patch until the new patch 
is available.

IMPORTANT!

Patch 2715 is part of the June 1998 patchset but should NOT be installed. It has been replaced by patch 3135. It should be noted that patch 3135 is not included as part of the June patchset but is qualified to be used with Alias in conjunction with the June 1998 patchset. If you install patch 2715 you are very likely to encounter software instability and crashes.
