Gurus,
In my haste of setting up a Disk Suite (4.2.1) mirror of my root disk, I
failed to properly modify my /etc/vfstab. I performed "metaroot" and am
able to boot to single-user mode. However, the system is unable to find the
remaining slices due to the following entries:
/dev/md/dsk/c3t0d0s3
/dev/md/dsk/c3t0d0s1
/dev/md/dsk/c3t0d0s4
etc...
As you can see I failed to rename the path with the mirror number. Example:
/dev/md/dsk/d30
/dev/md/dsk/d10
/dev/md/dsk/d40
Now PLEASE tell me there is a way to boot from cdrom to correct this
failure. I cannot vi /etc/vfstab because /var is one of the partitions that
it cannot locate and I need /var/tmp to open a temp copy of the vfstab when
I make my edits. I do not know how to boot from cdrom and would need to
know the steps to correct my obvious ignorance. I am running Solaris 8
02/02 on a SunFire 280R. I have the latest patches installed. I will
summarize !!!
Paul Fiengo
