Solaris 10 Kernel Patch



I'm trying to patch the kernel to 118833-24 from Generic_118822-25.
When I patchadd 118833-24, I get this error:

This appears to be an attempt to install the same architecture and
version of a package which is already installed. This installation
will attempt to overwrite this package.
