Then the format output shows slice three on / It isn't possible to import a file as a slice on a virtual hard disk. It is either the disk or it isn't. Which means it is either the WHOLE disk or it's not. It isn't possible to import it as the "third virtual slice". I don't know how you're concluding this, but you're wrong. s2 is normally the whole disk, assuming you haven't edited the slices on the virtual disk... which will damage the underlying dump file. I'm reviewing the qemu documentation... when you say "third virtual slice", do you really mean "third virtual disk", which is what -hdc means? Slices are NOT disks. -- Brandon Hume - hume -> BOFH.Ca, http://WWW.BOFH.Ca/

Of course it can't... you said the underlying file was a DUMP file, not a disk image. chuckers asked you earlier... why are you trying to treat a dump file as a disk? It isn't a disk. It's a dump file. It does NOT contain a filesystem you can mount... it contains a dump file meant to be written to tape. It can't be mounted, ever, no matter what you do. What does "ufsrestore -tf /dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s2" say? And let me say this again: Everything you've done has been the absolute worst way to accomplish anything. Someone with your skill level should have purchased (or gotten your employer to purchase) a small, cheap SPARC unit. -- Brandon Hume - hume -> BOFH.Ca, http://WWW.BOFH.Ca/

As I have understood from your message , my procedure is wrong . Can you please let me know if you have experienced importing one of your folders from your solaris machine to qemu-system-sparc ?

I've always used a *real* SPARC machine. You need to talk to the people on the qemu forums. -- Brandon Hume - hume -> BOFH.Ca, http://WWW.BOFH.Ca/ |
