Sun Ultra 2 Hard Drive Replacement
Hi all...I have an old Sun Ultra 2 running SunOS 5.7 (I know old). These machines have 2 hard drives and one of my drives fried. I bought some replacement drives and wanted to a simple "dd" command from my one good drive to copy all to the new replacement drive. The new drives however give me a bad geometry command from slot #2 when I try to copy. When I try to boot the new drives they will not. I'm guessing there is a procedure I need to complete before doing any type of copying to these drives. Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.
