| Is there a way that I can apply Sun's 112438 patch on a Solaris

No, it's for Solaris 8 only. For Solaris 2.6, you'll have to find a
copy of SUNWski or another solution (use http://groups.google.com/ to
find the many times /dev/random support has been discussed in the past).
|readme file, it states "For Solaris 2.0-2.6 releases, refer to the
|Install.info file and/or the README within the patch for instructions
|on using the generic 'installpatch' and 'backoutpatch' scripts
|provided with each patch."
That's boilerplate provided in the default patch README template so that
the same template applies to patches for all OS'es, and shouldn't be
read as a way to install Solaris 8 kernel modules into an incompatible
system.
