After getting the patch onto your machine, unshar the patch (sh PHSS_3256).

To install this patch do the following:
1) Run /etc/update (Note: you must be logged in as root to update
   a system).
2) Once in the update "Main Menu" move the highlighted line to "Change
   Source or Destination ->" and press "Return" or "Select Item".
3) Make sure the highlighted item in the "Change Source or Destination"
   window is "From Tape Device to Local System ...", then press "Return" or
   "Select Item".
4) You should now be in the "From Tape Device to Local System" window.
   Change the "Source:  /dev/rmt/0m" to "Source: /tmp/PHSS_3256.updt"
   (this assumes that you are in the /tmp directory where PHSS_3256.updt
   has been placed).  Note: You must enter the complete path name.
5) Press "Done".

The customized script that update runs will move the original software

order to recover from any potential problems.  It is also recommended that
you move the PHSS_3256.text file to /system/PHSS_3256 to be retained for
future reference.

If you wish to put this patch on a magnetic tape and update from the tape
drive, dd a copy of the patch to the tape drive.  As an example the
following will create a copy of the patch that update can read:
dd if=PHSS_3256.updt of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2048
