I myself use the following shellscript:

#! /bin/sh
#
# PATCH THE KERNEL ON DISK OR IN MEMORY
#

if [ $# != 1 ]
then
	echo 'Usage: PATCH_KERNEL [MEMORY|DISK|BOTH]'
	exit
fi

case $1 in
	MEMORY)
		adb -w /hp-ux /dev/kmem << EOFMEM
		nobody/W0
		EOFMEM
		;;
	DISK)
		adb -w /hp-ux << EOFDISK
		nobody?W0
		EOFDISK
		;;
	BOTH)
		adb -w /hp-ux /dev/kmem << EOFBOTH
		nobody?W0
		nobody/W0
		EOFBOTH
		;;
	*)
		echo 'Usage: PATCH_KERNEL [MEMORY|DISK|BOTH]'
		;;
esac
