Hello,
I'm still learning unix and I have what is probably a simple question but I can't seem to find the question to.

We are having a problem with initializing Solaris 8 installed on a Sunblade 1500 after having cloned the hard disc.
(The cloning process was done in a windows environment. Not a UNIX environment.)
Immediately after the cloning process neither hard disc would boot until the format label... (10 Replies)
Hi,
I am trying to clone the hard disk image of Solaris OS on one disk to another disk. After some googling I found that there is a command "dd" to achieve this.
However there is a condition to use the dd command, that the disk geometry of both the disks (source and target disks) should... (5 Replies)
