Nothing really changed... Still didn't work. Any other solutions?

Contents of /etc/system
Code:
*ident  "@(#)system     1.18    97/06/27 SMI" /* SVR4 1.5 */
*
* SYSTEM SPECIFICATION FILE
*
* moddir:
*
*       Set the search path for modules.  This has a format similar to the
*       csh path variable. If the module isn't found in the first directory
*       it tries the second and so on. The default is /kernel /usr/kernel
*
*       Example:
*               moddir: /kernel /usr/kernel /other/modules
 
* root device and root filesystem configuration:
*
*       The following may be used to override the defaults provided by
*       the boot program:
*
*       rootfs:         Set the filesystem type of the root.
*
*       rootdev:        Set the root device.  This should be a fully
*                       expanded physical pathname.  The default is the
*                       physical pathname of the device where the boot
*                       program resides.  The physical pathname is
*                       highly platform and configuration dependent.
*
*       Example:
*               rootfs:ufs
*               rootdev:/sbus@1,f8000000/esp@0,800000/sd@3,0:a
*
*       (Swap device configuration should be specified in /etc/vfstab.)
 
* exclude:
*
*       Modules appearing in the moddir path which are NOT to be loaded,
*       even if referenced. Note that `exclude' accepts either a module name,
*       or a filename which includes the directory.
*
*       Examples:
*       exclude: win
*               exclude: sys/shmsys
 
* forceload:
*
*       Cause these modules to be loaded at boot time, (just before mounting
*       the root filesystem) rather than at first reference. Note that
*       forceload expects a filename which includes the directory. Also
*       note that loading a module does not necessarily imply that it will
*       be installed.
*
*       Example:
*               forceload: drv/foo
 
* set:
*
*       Set an integer variable in the kernel or a module to a new value.
*       This facility should be used with caution.  See system(4).
*
*       Examples:
*
*       To set variables in 'unix':
*
*               set nautopush=32
*               set maxusers=40
*
*       To set a variable named 'debug' in the module named 'test_module'
*
*               set test_module:debug = 0x13
set c2audit:audit_load = 1


Thank you all for your help. I really appriciate it.

What other file, other than /etc/vfstab could be causing this thing not working. I installed an image on the V440.. and I can not take that one to a V210.

What am I missing? It has to be possible. If you can do it on DOS with similar type of hardware, you should be able to do it here with the similar chipsets.
