Greetings friends,
I would like to 'clone' the system/root hard disk with dd. (Solaris 10 on SPARC).
If I understood correctly, 'OK Prompt' can use dd command?
Can it mount drives? (to avoid any possibility of cloning the wrong drive, I'd like to output dd to file)
thanks. (3 Replies)

mount_sysvbfs
MOUNT_SYSVBFS(8) BSD System Manager's Manual MOUNT_SYSVBFS(8)
NAME
mount_sysvbfs -- mount a System V Boot File System
SYNOPSIS
mount_sysvbfs [-o options] special node
DESCRIPTION
The mount_sysvbfs command attaches the System V Boot File System on the special device on to the file system tree at point node. Both
special and node are converted to absolute paths before use.
This command is normally executed by mount(8) at boot time. The options are as follows:
-o Options are specified with a -o flag followed by a comma separated string of options. See the mount(8) man page for possible options
and their meanings.
SEE ALSO
mount(2), unmount(2), fstab(5), mount(8)
HISTORY
A mount_sysvbfs command first appeared in NetBSD 4.0.
BUGS
The sysvbfs support is still experimental and there are few sanity checks, so it is possible for a corrupted file system to cause a crash.
