I''ve got a 240z with Solaris 10 Update 7, all the latest patches from
Sunsolve. I''ve installed a boot drive with ZFS. I mirrored the drive
with zpool. I installed the boot block. The system had been working just fine.
But for some reason, when I try to boot, I get the error:
{1} ok boot -s
Boot device: /pci at 1c,600000/scsi at 2/disk at 0,0 File and args: -s

Hi Grant, I don''t have all my usual resources at the moment, but I would boot from alternate media and use the format utility to check the partitioning on newly added disk, and look for something like overlapping partitions. Or, possibly, a mismatch between the actual root slice and the one you are trying to boot from.

Hi Cindy, I tried booting from DVD but nothing showed up. Thanks for the ideas, though.

Hi Grant, I''ve had no more luck researching this, mostly because the error message can mean different things in different scenarios. I did try to reproduce it and I can''t. I noticed you are booting using boot -s, which I think means the system will boot from the default boot disk, not the newly added disk. Can you boot from the secondary boot disk directly by using the boot path? On my 280r system, I would boot from the secondary disk like this: ok boot /pci at 8,600000/SUNW,qlc at 4/fp at 0,0/disk at 0,0 Cindy On 08/27/09 23:54, Grant Lowe wrote:> Hi Cindy, > > I tried booting from DVD but nothing showed up.

Well, what I ended up doing was reinstalling Solaris. Fortunately this is a
test box for now. I''ve repeatedly pulled both the root drive and the
mirrored drive. The system behaved as normal. The trick that worked for me was
to reinstall, but select both drives for zfs. Originally I selected only one
drive for zfs.

All rights reserved. > Use is subject to license terms. > Division by Zero > {1} okMy guess: s0 was to small when updating the boot archive. So booting from a jumstart dir/CD, mounting s0 (e.g. to /a) and running bootadm update-archive -R /a should fix the problem. If you are low on space on /, manually rm -f /a/platform/sun4u/boot_archive before doing the update-archive. If still not enough space, try to move some other stuff temp. away, e.g. /core , /etc/mail/cf ...
