Action

To fix:

1. Check the SCSI bus for illegal configuration, bad cables, and duplicate SCSI addresses.

2. Boot from CD-ROM as single user.

   OK boot cdrom -sw

3. Attempt to fsck(1M) boot disk. This could fail with a super block error.

   # fsck /dev/rdsk/device

4. Find the locations of alternate super blocks. BE SURE TO USE AN UPPERCASE -N. For example:

   # newfs -N /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0: 2048960 sectors in 1348 cylinders of 19 tracks, 80 sectors 1000.5MB in 85 cyl groups (16 c/g, 11.88MB/g, 5696 i/g) super-block backups (for fsck -F ufs -o b=#) at: 32, 24432, 48832, 73232, 97632, 122032, 146432, 170832, 195232, 219632, 244032, 268432, 292832, 317232, 341632, 366032, 390432, 414832, 439232, 463632, 488032, 512432, 536832, 561232, 585632, 610032, 634432, 658832, 683232, 707632, 732032, 756432, 778272, 802672, 827072, 851472, 875872, 900272, 924672, 949072, 973472, 997872, 1022272, 1290672, ...

5. Using an alternate super block, run fsck(1M) on the disk. You might have to try more than one alternate super block to make this to work. Pick a couple from the beginning, the middle, and the end.

   # fsck -o b=<altblk> /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0

6. The boot block is probably bad too. Restore it while you are booted from the CD-ROM.

   # /usr/sbin/installboot /usr/platform/architecture/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0

7. Reboot the operating environment.

   # reboot
