Time to put the keyboard > down, step away from the root prompt and get some caffeine :) "Saolrsi" - your body is telling you that you may be developing RSI. Don't try typing "risky", "pristine" or "rissoles" ;-)

Failing that, you might get away with copying it from the installation CD, particularly if you haven't added any drivers after installation. At least, it might get the system up further, and then you can say what else is still moaning about missing major numbers and we might be able to suggest how to fix those on a case-by-case basis. The file contains persistent kernel state which is not trivially recreated from other sources. > Or you could specify what version of Solaris you're running, and > someone here could post a copy of their file, assuming that's the only > thing that got wiped.

If you really lost the whole Core Solaris root package, it's probably easiest to start by reinstalling ;-) -- Andrew Gabriel

Thanks a lot for your postings! The problem is that root partition is created from mirrored disks by Solstice DIsksuite Now it looks like I cannot get the mirror disks working. :( Here are the updated error messages: **************************************************************** Rebooting with command: boot cdrom -s Boot device: /pci@8,700000/scsi@1/disk@6,0:f File and args: -s SunOS Release 5.9 Version Generic_112233-03 64-bit Copyright 1983-2002 Sun Microsystems, Inc.
