Hallo together,
I have a litle problem with some of my external devices.
If I type mount there are some "panic" massages.
Is this a real mistake or is this a normal behavior of a Solaris 8 system ?

Presently I have mounted a disk as su. I believe only root can mount disks -- is this correct?
I had to run mozilla in the root account so I can download the new SuSE distribution to the new disk.
How can I mount the disk so non-root accounts can access the disk?
Thanks,

I have a USB disk on a little NAS controller (NSLU2 running unslung 6.8) that I can access nicely with root with
mount -t cifs \\\\10.134.23.23\\DISK\ 2 /mnt/LKGD7F73A
However, when I run emacs from an user mode xterm prompt, emacs cannot read and write the files on /mnt/LKGD7F73A. Emacs can... (11 Replies)

Hi Guys,
I just tried to reboot my server, but it seems to be panicing and unable to mount the root disk.
The filesystem is supposed to be ufs, so im not sure why its talking about vfs.
At the moment it's just stuck in a loop of Reboot-panic-reboot.
Any ideas?

Hi,
on running system, a disk was added
hdiskx
then importvg -y oraclevg hdiskx
but hdiskx was actually a rootvg so since rootvg was already present in the existing system this happened
Imported hdisk2 which was rootvg as importvg -y oraclevg hdisk2 in server since rootvg already... (1 Reply)
I have a Debian OpenBox that boots from any usb port. The Debian LXDE will only boot from one specific port. It needs to look at all of them to find and be root, and mount the root filesystem by UUID. Both are full installs to 16GB flash drives.
That is not being done.
It says during boot... (0 Replies)

root_archive
root_archive(1M)root_archive(1M)NAME
root_archive - manage bootable miniroot archives
SYNOPSIS
/boot/solaris/bin/root_archive pack archive root
/boot/solaris/bin/root_archive unpack archive root
/boot/solaris/bin/root_archive packmedia solaris_image root
/boot/solaris/bin/root_archive unpackmedia solaris_image root
The root_archive utility is used to manage bootable miniroot archives and is currently only available on platforms. The utility can pack
and unpack boot/root archives in both ufs and hsfs (iso9660) format. It will always generate ufs archives.
root_archive also uses the lofi file driver to export a file as a block device (see lofi(7D)) and mount to mount or unmount file systems
and remote resources (see mount(1M)). root_archive requires the same privileges that are needed to run these commands.
SUBCOMMANDS
The root_archive command has the following subcommands:
pack archive root
Pack from the image found under the root directory to the archive.
unpack archive root
Unpack from the archive to an unpacked image under the root directory.
packmedia solaris_image root
Pack the solaris image to the root directory.
unpackmedia solaris_image root
Unpack the solaris image from the root directory.
For packmedia and unpackmedia, other items that do not go into the ramdisk image are copied or uncopied (see cpio(1)) as well. Specifi-
cally, this includes all the packaging databases needed for pkgadd and the other packaging utilities to succeed which are not used in the
running and hence pruned to conserve memory.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Unpacking the Solaris x86 install image
The following command unpacks the current Solaris image from the root directory:
# root_archive unpackmedia
/export/nv/solarisdvd.nvx_dvd/latest /export/Boot
Where /export/nv/solarisdvd.nvx_dvd/latest represents a path to a Solaris x86 install image and /export/Boot is a directory that will be
purged or created, as necessary.
Example 2: Packing the Solaris x86 install image
The following command packs the current Solaris image to the root directory:
# root_archive packmedia
/export/nv/solarisdvd.nvx_dvd/latest /export/Boot
The following exit values are returned:
0
The command completed successfully.
1
The command exited due to an error.
