Thanks for poiniting my attention to that typo

sorry it was a typing typo , i wasn't capturing the text came from shell
i did'nt do that
acutally i meant

Code:
#dd if=/dev/rdsk/c0d0p0 of=/dev/null  bs=1024k
#dd if=/dev/rdsk/c0d0p1 of=/dev/null  bs=1024k

this acutally what i entered in shell

is there still any hope after all

@ilikecows
i can't affored the cost of recovery service the very right now
i'm looking for a cheap software for recovery

NAME

       mkdevmaps - make device_maps entries

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/mkdevmaps

DESCRIPTION

       The  mkdevmaps  command	writes	to standard out a set of device_maps(4) entries describing the system's frame buffer, audio, and removable

       checks for the following files under /dev:

       audio	       /dev/audio, /dev/audioctl, /dev/sound/...
       tape	       /dev/rst*, /dev/nrst*, /dev/rmt/...
       floppy	       /dev/diskette, /dev/fd*, /dev/rdiskette, /dev/rfd*
       removable disk  /dev/dsk/c0t?d0s?, /dev/rdsk/c0t?d0s?
       frame buffer    /dev/fb
