The machine that is running Solaris 8 and Solaris 7 are the same
machine.  I have an external hard disk that contains Solaris 8 and I
can boot into either Solaris 7 or 8, no partitions are shared between
the disk drives but using the same hardware.  Also I have found that
when I use the debugger on the application in question I get an error
that looks like the debugger is dying.  I have attached a screen
capture of the output from the debugger.  It shows a DEBUGGER
ASSERTION ERROR.
