A few folks inside Sun asked if there was anything we could do to make the Solaris Crash Analysis Tool package(s) smaller. Sure! We just left the package "fat" to ease debugging but folks don't always have the disk space to install a monster analysis tool. We've therefore, re-spun release 5.1 as 5.1b with a much smaller footprint. The bonus is that since we had to spin new packages, we decided to add the bug fixes that we've added since the original release.
Therefore, if you pulled a copy of 5.1, you might want to revisit the download page and pull a copy of 5.1b.
The installed packages are now:
| Solaris CAT 5.1b x86/x64 |
~20MB |
| Solaris CAT 5.1b SPARC |
~50MB |
| Solaris CAT 5.1b Combined |
~70MB |
Thank you for a great tool!
But link to "download page" is broken. Old link (two posts back) works fine and points to 5.1b.

Whoops... The link has been fixed. Thanks! If it still gives us problems, here's the correct one:
