Hello
all,
As you can see from my signature I am supposed not to
have a lot of Solaris experience ... and this is the
case ;-)) I know this
question is of track but maybe someone can help me, or direct me to a
Sun/Solaris
mailing list.
We have an Ultra5 with two
disks in it. From what I understand the 1st one, Internal one, is an IDE and the
2d one,
external one, is a SCSI. We have Solaris 2.6 and CP 4.1-SP5 on the
SCSI disk. Now I decided to install Solaris 8
on the IDE disk to test NG ...
the installation is done, but I need to reboot from my SCSI disk now ... and I
am unable
to find the syntax. Doing a probe-scsi-all tells me Target 3 - Unit
0 is available as an IBM type disk.
From the command prompt
I see:
boot-device disk:a
/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@1/SUNW,isptwo@4/sd@3,0:a disk net
I understand this
as boot from device alias disk partition a first, then try
/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@1/SUNW,isptwo@4/sd@3,0:a
then disk then network. Disk
device alias points to /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/ide@3/disk@0,0 which is the IDE
disk.
I booted the Solaris 8 disk, and checked the /dev/dsk/c1t3d0s0 ...
it points at the SCSI id 3 disk, I even mounted that partition
and saw the
data (ouf I didn't overwrite it)
So what is the syntax I should
use to boot of this SCSI disk, known as c1t3d0s0 under the OS ?
Met
vriendelijke groeten - Bien à vous - Kind regards
