Hello Managers,
OS=Solaris 2.6
I loaded OS on an external disk on target 4 controller 1 (c1t4)and was able
to boot fine from it. Then I moved that disk on to target 5 (c1t5) and
changed /etv/vfstab accordingly.
I setup an alias to boot from that disk and did a "boot <alias>". It finds
the disk and boot block okay but now it complains about not able to mount
/usr and goes back to OK prompt. I booted from internal disk and was able
mount that slice (/usr) manually just fine. I tried switching external disk
to c1t3 and still same /usr related error.
I checked and there are no target conflicts. The disk boots happily when
switched back to c1t4 from c1t5.
I saw following as solution on sunmanagers but it's not clear to me...
Could someone please shed more light on how to use mknod and create links?
