* Example:
* moddir: /kernel /usr/kernel /other/modules

* rootfs: Set the filesystem type of the root.

I am not able to do metastat d400, i can only boot the server with the cdrom because the server can't boot even the boot -f failsafe doesn't work.


here is what i did
Quote:
1°)I have booted the system with a solaris dvd (boot cdrom -s ), I ran fsck on all the partition (root, usr, var, opt)


2°)I tried to install boot archive

# cd /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs
# installboot bootblk /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0


3°)update bootarchive

#bootadm update-archive

i also tried the method bellow but it didn't work
