I have Solaris on Sparc boxes available if it would help to do a net install or jumpstart. I have never done those and it looks complicated, although I think I may be able to get to the point in the u9 installer on my Intel box where it asks me whether I want to install from DVD etc. But I may be wrong, and anyway the single user shell in the u9 DVD also panics when I try to import tank so maybe that won't help.
Put your old drive in a USB enclosure and connect it to another system in order to read back the data.
I have only 4 sata ports on this Intel box so I have to keep pulling cables to be able to boot from a DVD and then I won't have all my drives available. I cannot move these drives to any other box because they are consumer drives and my servers all have ultras.
Most modern boards will be boot from a live USB stick. -- Ian. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
