I don't know whether this would be expected to work at this stage, 
but a fresh install of 9.4.0 (pointing at the dev cell installer 
volume, and control/control-9.4) fails with:

failed dependencies:
	pyorbit >= 2.0.l is needed by gnome-python2-bonobo-2.6.0-3

Just for kicks I tried the RW volume too, and that failed the same way.

I also updated an IntelliStation to 9.4.0 from 9.3.18, and that seems 
to have gone OK.  mkserv failed with "Can't find the mkserv program 
in the mkserv locker", I presume that's to be expected?

During the boot process, the microcode_ctl service failed with 
"/dev/cpu/0/microcode doesn't exist", and "Updating panel menus" 
failed.

Logging in results in "chown: cannot access 'midi*': No such file or 
directory" in the console, and again for 'sequencer'.  Then it 
claimed to be starting metacity and took a LONG time, but eventually 
it worked.  My nautilus desktop seems to have inherited a bunch of 
icons from my KDE desktop, and also my SGI desktop (dumpster, for 
example), I'm not sure how those got there.
