x86: How to Install a Boot Block on a System Disk

1. Become superuser.

2. Install the boot block.

   # /usr/sbin/installboot /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/pboot /usr/platform/`uname -i` /lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/cwtxdys2

   /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/pboot	Is the partition boot file.
   /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk	Is the boot block code.
   /dev/rdsk/cwtxdys2	Is the raw device name that represents the whole disk.

3. Verify the boot blocks are installed by rebooting the system to run level 3.

   # init 6
