Sorry, no, I don't use chat rooms - and unfortunately, I was not on this site this morning so I did not see your last message until now (can't use chat at work).

From what you posted - you didn't apply the patch.

i could not seem to find any matches when i did
ls -l /a/devices/pseudo/sys*
This means the problem occurred due to the patch (according to the documentation). You must do Step 4 and below in the documentation. I've never used ftp to get a file onto a server booted from cdrom, but the documentation makes it sound like it is possible. Put the patch onto a disk (mount /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 back to /a). ftp from your 'down' server to one that has the patch. Get the patch and then follow the rest of the steps.

cdbs-edit-patch

CDBS-EDIT-PATCH(1)						CDBS Documentation						CDBS-EDIT-PATCH(1)

NAME

       cdbs-edit-patch - create or edit a CDBS simple-patchsys.mk patch

SYNOPSIS

       cdbs-edit-patch patchname

DESCRIPTION

       cdbs-edit-patch	creates  or edits patches for use by the CDBS simple-patchsys.mk patch system.	For more information about CDBS please see
       the documentation under /usr/share/doc/cdbs/.

       When patchname exists, cdbs-edit-patch will set up a temporary working source tree, apply all patches up to and including patchname in lex-
       icographic  order,  and	spawn  an  interactive shell for the developer.  The developer can then edit files in this working tree.  When the
       developer is done and exits the shell, cdbs-edit-patch updates patchname to reflect the changes made.  To abort the process from the inter-
       active shell, exit with a nonzero exit value.

       When patchname does not exist, cdbs-edit-patch will assume that a new patch should be created.  As with the above scenario, cdbs-edit-patch
       will first create a temporary working source tree and apply all patches up to the new patch in lexicographic  order.   When  the  shell	is
       quit, cdbs-edit-patch will create patchname.
