Dear Sunmanagers
Thanks to everyone that replied. Sorry for the long
delay in posting a
summary. As suggested by almost everyone that replied, the
problem was
the hard disk. After replacing the hard disk I was able to
re-install
Solaris 8.
Thanks to
Michael Sullivan

Subject: Cannot re-install Solaris 8
Dear Sunmanagers
I have
an Ultra 5 running Solaris 8 Version Generic_108528_29. On
rebooting the
system (either multiuser or single user runlevel), the
system panics and
restarts.
In an effort to remedy this situation, I did the following:
Entered "ok" prompt and ran "boot cdrom" with the Solaris 8 (2/02) cd.
Results:
Part of the installation completes successfully (sytem
identification)
but the installation encounters errors when the filesystem
has to be
created. The error(s) are as follows:
WARNING: timeout:
reset target chno = 0 targ = 0
timeout: reset bus chno = 0
targ = 0
Drive not ready before set_features
/pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/ide@3/dad@0,0(dad0)
Transport rejected
(-2)
ERROR: File system creation failed for / (c0t0d0s0) could not
check or
create system critical file systems.
Could not
update disks with new configuration
Any ideas???
Thanks and
regards
Shiroma
