Hi all,
I have a problem where people are turning the power off during boot-up on
SPARC based sun CP2040 cards running solaris 8 2/04.
(the units are in the field so I have no way to stop them killing the power).
When I try to boot the device I get the follwing error message:
cannot open /etc/path_to_inst
Despite the having ufs logging enabled on the root slice I get corruption on
/etc/path_to_inst file,
You cant boot into single user mode to repair it; I guess this file is called
very early in the boot process.
To correct it, I have to boot across the net from a boot server and manually
fsck the root slice. After that everything is OK.
Is there anything I can do to stop this file corrupting?
Thanks
Dan
