That's the problem. You should have attached the new drive (or partition I guess) to copy over the OpenSolaris system. > Unfortunately, this failed to set up grub correctly so I resorted to the > brute force solution of just reinstalling opensolaris to get things booting > again. Check the admin guide for some hints: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2379/ggvms?l=en&a=view The zpool should have the bootfs property set, as documented in the zpool man page. Grub's menu.lst needs to have the correct bootfs value, as well as the findroot line. The boot signature needs to be set as well, since this is what the findroot command uses. > Any suggestions? The admin guide is the best place to start. An easy fix is to delete the new solaris partition and the use zfs mirroring to copy onto the new drive. -B -- Brandon High : bh...@freaks.com _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
