To find the OS level do a
$ sizer -v
(sizer gives alot of different info with other options)
To find the phys. mem amount.
$ vmstat -P
(lots of other info, you can grep out "Memory"

I'm trying to write up a "pre-insallation checklist" for some software, and 
am struggling on finding a way to get the following output(as non-root).
OS version, I want to make sure they are using 4.0d or higher, uname 
doesn't report the d part, is there a way to get this? uname -v report 878, 
what is the 878 for?
Memory Available, is there a command to find the amount of physical ram?
I can do these with uerf and grep'ing out the good info, but uerf needs 
root. I can also get some of this by grep'ing the info out of 
/var/adm/messages, but thats not a very relialble position(as it could get 
delete, things cahnge etc..)
Any ideas? I found pinfo and that is good for the cpu type/speed.
Thanks, will summarize
