i know this machine (an Ultra 1 Creator) doesn't boot up.... that's exactly
why
i'm trying to reinstall it. there are 2 hard disks in it (about 8 or 9 GB
each),
and they are out of a standard Ultra 1 that worked fine. I don't understand
why
this is happening... ignore the fsck errors, just focus on the following two
points:
- It can't boot from CD-ROM, but i'm using the exact same CDs that i
installed
Solaris with the day before, and the CD-ROM drive works fine as far as i
know.
- Device sd13 failed to power up. What is on sd13?? is it a hard disk? the
CD-ROM? something else?
if anyone has any suggestions at all, please let me know!!
Once again... Feel free to reply here:

Thanks,
Richard.
