        ∂ : Action to Take : Welcome ? At this point you get a welcome ? Confused ? Don't be.

    From the first moment that you booted the CDROM you should get the feeling that you are moving along an assembly line.  It just happens to be a really big corporate assembly line and some of the stages have been around a long time, like kdmconfig.  Some have been recently added and some are just outright borrowed from somewhere else like the GRUB boot loader.  If you want to listen to a singular beautiful masterpiece of music then you need one composer, one artist, one maestro.  Simply listen to Beethoven, Mozart or Bach's Brandenburg Concertos and you will firmly feel that one mind orchestrated these masterpieces.  The Solaris installation process was designed by departments of people and it looks like they were not all talking to one another.  I have no other way to explain why I am getting the big “Welcome” at this point.
