I/O error with dd (Solaris 2.5.1)

Hi,

Trying to erase a disk content with Solaris 2.5.1 with "dd", I get the
following error :

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/c3t2d0s2 bs=1024
dd: /dev/rdsk/c3t2d0s2: open: I/O error

Trussing the "dd" process, it seems it tries to create the output file,
although it already exists :

2693/1: open("/dev/zero", O_RDONLY) = 3
2693/1: creat("/dev/rdsk/c3t2d0s2", 0666) Err#5 EIO

The command works well with Solaris 2.6+.
I couldn't find any patch for "dd".

Any advice ?
Thanks.
