[desktop-discuss] JDS vermillion_43 won't install

[Brian Cameron]

Patrick :

When you untar the tarball, there should be a .pkginfo file.  You can 
modify the KernelID value to an older version of Nevada and it should
install.  You may find it doesn't work if you cheat the install script
like this, but it might work.
