Operating Systems Solaris help retrieving files from SunOS 5.8 Post 302212836 by ryanm on Tuesday 8th of July 2008 12:50:19 PM

thanks for the advice guys,
I tried DukeNuke2's suggestion but still wasn't able to copy anything to the disk.

incredible,
I performed the start/stop on volmgt, did mount -a, but df k returned
df: (k ) not a block device, directory, or mounted resource.


I plugged in a USB thumbdrive and did iostat -En and it returned:

c0t6d0 - Toshiba DVD
c1t1d0 - SEAGATE ST373405FSUN72G (73 GB) (I'm not familiar with this system or what internal disks it has, so I'm assuming this is the hard drive) and
usb_sd0 - Seagate External Drive (0.00 GB) (this also listed Illegal Request: 46 whatever that is).

I'm not sure what directory usb_sd0 is in, since I tried mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/usb_sd0s0:c /mnt and it returned not a file or directory (even though I'm not sure if that's the correct syntax since it isn't in c#t#d# format).

Any suggestions? Thanks for your time guys

mount_pcfs(1M)						  System Administration Commands					    mount_pcfs(1M)

NAME
mount_pcfs - mount pcfs file systems SYNOPSIS
mount -F pcfs [generic_options] [-o FSType-specific_options] special | mount_point mount -F pcfs [generic_options] [-o FSType-specific_options] special mount_point DESCRIPTION
mount attaches an MS-DOS file system (pcfs) to the file system hierarchy at the mount_point, which is the pathname of a directory. If mount_point has any contents prior to the mount operation, these are hidden until the file system is unmounted. If mount is invoked with special or mount_point as the only arguments, mount will search /etc/vfstab to fill in the missing arguments, including the FSType-specific_options; see mount(1M) for more details. The special argument can be one of two special device file types: o A floppy disk, such as /dev/diskette0 or /dev/diskette1. o A DOS logical drive on a hard disk expressed as device-name:logical-drive , where device-name specifies the special block device-file for the whole disk and logical-drive is either a drive letter (c through z) or a drive number (1 through 24). Examples are /dev/dsk/c0t0d0p0:c and /dev/dsk/c0t0d0p0:1. The special device file type must have a formatted MS-DOS file system with either a 12-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit File Allocation Table. OPTIONS
generic_options See mount(1M) for the list of supported options. -o Specify pcfs file system specific options. The following options are supported: foldcase|nofoldcase Force uppercase characters in filenames to lowercase when reading them from the filesystem. This is for compatibility with the pre- vious behavior of pcfs. The default is nofoldcase. FILES
/etc/mnttab table of mounted file systems /etc/vfstab list of default parameters for each file system ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWesu | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
mount(1M), mountall(1M), mount(2), mnttab(4), vfstab(4), attributes(5), pcfs(7FS) NOTES
If the directory on which a file system is to be mounted is a symbolic link, the file system is mounted on the directory to which the sym- bolic link refers, rather than on top of the symbolic link itself. SunOS 5.10 24 Nov 2003 mount_pcfs(1M)
