I have completed a ufsrestore of a root disk from tape to another server. On
the original server, the boot device was a metadevice created by SDS but the
new server has only a single disk. When I attempt to boot disk, I get the
following error. I have edited the vfstab file and used the installboot
command to add a boot block. What step am I missing? Thanks.
