SUNADMIN, thanks very much, i performed steps you mentioned and was able to boot... But the problem is that when I made init 0, inserted back fiber optic cables (to attach storages) and made boot again, I got same error:

Code:
{3} ok boot 
Boot device: /pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@2/fp@0,0/disk@w5000cca0043b59fd,0 File and args: 
Boot load failed.
The file just loaded does not appear to be executable.
{3} ok

So, as I understand - changes wasn't saved... could you please help me to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance,
Roman
