Boot Problem

[Rob Leadbeater]

Hi,

I don't think you can set booted_dev. That variable is set as the system boots to tell you what device the system booted from.

The important one is bootdef_dev (Default Boot Device).

Can you post the output of

P00>>> show dev
P00>>> show boot*

Cheers,

Rob

Hi Rob

I work straight from the console, so cant provide the output.But I can tell you this, I have two internal disk, dka0 is the OS disk.And that is set bootdef_dev as default.
When the OS loads, it says found valid boot block. And /etc/fdmns root_domain points to dsk0a which is correct.

Thanks

Checking local filesystems
expr: syntax error
Mounting Filesystem
Cannot find boot filesystem mount point
mountroot: Please correct the mount problem and reboot

After checking local filesystem, there is an error, not sure whether this is stopping.

Hi,

Based on "expr: syntax error" I'll take a guess that there's a typo in /etc/fstab
