AIX PS/2 Update 1009

[M. Ganter]

I received update 1009 late last week.  I'm in the process in doing the
update.  The kit contains 26 update diskettes and 2 new boot disks, a new
installation diskette, and a new maintenance disk.  Yes, I do confirm that
the kit was offered in tape form for the update diskettes.

The PTF release notes are more or less correct.  PLEASE NOTE, you will
need a fair amount of hard disk space to install this upgrade.  You need
a least 44,000 blocks on / (root) and 4,600 blocks on /tmp.  If you use
the method which builds a large backup set from diskettes you will need
about 85-90,000 free blocks just to build the large backup set.

I will keep you all posted....
