Anyone who knows the solution please tell me why I am having this problem? Motherboard: ASUS A7V133 x86 OS: Solaris 10 3/05
I successfully copied root, /var, /opt and /home filesystems from the source root disk (13GB) to the destination root disk (40GB UDMA) using "ufsdump 0f - /dev/rdsk/c1d0sn | (cd /mnt; ufsrestore xf -)" I then did the following steps: 1. fdisk -b /usr/lib/fs/ufs/mboot /dev/rdsk/c0d0p0 (new active boot disk) 2. installboot /usr/platform/i86pc/lib/fs/ufs/pboot /usr/platform/i86pc/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c0d0s2 3. Updated vfstab to point to the new disk slices 4. Updated /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc to point to the right physical IDE location of the new disk (ie change from setprop bootpath '/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED],1/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:a' to setprop bootpath '/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED],1/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:a') I then rebooted and updated BIOS to boot from the new disk. The machine then hangs and I am seeing this error "Not a UFS file system". I looked everywhere on the Internet for useful tips but all said the same thing, to make a disk bootable you need to run installboot which is exactly what I did. So what went wrong? Anyone out there knows please tell me? Please help. Trevor This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
