[ug-glug] Remake of Solaris Internals Book

[Dennis J. Behrens]

Yeah, the first edition was excellent.  It really helped when I was at Sun 
working an escalation for a customer, and I was working with kernel 
engineers and they threw some terms out, and I was able to flip to the 
index, look the term up and understand what they were saying to me, and 
hence better able to explain it to the customer.  I even took that book 
with me once to the customer meeting and pointed out a key term the kernel 
engineer kept using, and after the customer read that section of the book 
they were satisfied that we found the root cause of their system 
instability.  (Yeah, we got a binary fix and a t-patch, and then of course 
later a real patch out of it...)

BTW, in case some of ya have wondered where I've disappeared to, I'm now 
in Cincy working as a contract Solaris sysadmin for HP.
