Hi,

i have a system with solaris 5.10 142901-12 and i need to downgrade at 119255-73.

It's possible?
 
Try to do a patchrm 142901-12.

It will only work if the patch was installed without removing the old files or if that patch was not part of the initial installation baseline.
 
Your request does not make any sense.

142901-12 is a kernel patch, pretty recent in fact.

119255-73 is a "install and patch utility" patch. They are not the same.

why do you need to remove the latest kernel patch?

 
yes djr111 your comment is right.

142901-12 is latest kernel patch available on SUN site.

I need, at the end of installation, that the system have patch id: 119255-73.

have I made myself more clear now?
 
you can just install that patch at anytime. download it from Sun and install it. I installed it using: smpatch
