I am trying to reinstall the boot program in order to be able to boot
this system.

ok boot cdrom -s
# fsck -F ufs /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s0
BAD SUPER BLOCK: FRAGS PER BLOCK OR FRAG SIZE WRONG
USE AN ALTERNATE SUPER-BLOCK TO SUPPLY NEEDED INFORMATION;
eg. fsck [-F ufs] -o b=# [special ...]
where # is the alternate super block.  SEE fsck_ufs(1M).

I looked at that man page on the web, but am not sure how to
proceed.  I just ran the above command earlier today when fsck 
failed during a boot, without receiving that error message.

After fsck runs successfully, I was going to restore the boot program
from the installation cd as follows:

# cp /platform/`uname -i`/ufsboot /mnt/platform/`uname -i`

Any comments about this?

Thanks,
Barry
