Great suggestion from jlliagre in post#12. Yes, try that.
The c3t0d0? stuff is the removable media controller (c3 bit) on your hardware managed by the rm manager. You could try deleting the device node that it is trying to format, eg,
Code:
rm -f /dev/dsk/c3t0d0s0
rm -f /dev/rdsk/c3t0d0s0
or whatever.
See what device nodes exist starting c3......
If the device really doesn't exist, the removable media manager may not recreate the device node thereby fixing the problem.
Oh, that could be fun if c3 is the USB controller and the box has a USB mouse and/or keyboard.
A reconfiguration reboot via "reboot -- -r" would probably clean it all up. That's a really old version of Solaris, and IIRC the handling of USB devices back then wasn't all that good.
I have an existing C module that already built libudf.so
Now I have modify this module to call a third party software function (which is new.so), and re build to target to libudf.so
I compiled that includes all header files of third party software.
Linking to new.so is also good,

removable-media(9P) Kernel Properties for Drivers removable-media(9P)NAME
removable-media - removable media device property
DESCRIPTION
A device that supports removable media--such as CDROM, JAZZ, and ZIP drives--and that supports power management and expects automatic
mounting of the device via the volume manager should export the boolean (zero length) property removable-media. This property enables the
system to make the power state of the device dependent on the power state of the frame buffer and monitor. See the power.conf(4) discussion
of the device-dependency-property entry for more information.
Devices that behave like removable devices (such as PC ATA cards, where the controller and media both are removed at the same time) should
also export this property.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: removable-media Entry
An example of a removable-media entry from the .conf file of a driver is shown below.
# This entry keeps removable media from being powered down unless
# the console framebuffer and monitor are powered down
#
removable-media=1;
Example 2: Implementation in attach()
Below is an example of how the entry above would be implemented in the attach(9E) function of the driver.
xxattach(dev_info_t *dip, ddi_attach_cmd_t cmd)
{
...
if (ddi_prop_create(DDI_DEV_T_NONE, dip, DDI_PROP_CANSLEEP,
"removable-media", NULL, 0)) != DDI_PROP_SUCCESS)
goto failed;
...
}
