Solaris 10 boot failed init
Dear all,

I have a solaris 10 in my environment (VMware virtual machine). recently I increased the harddisk size from the VMware and reboot my server. after reboot the os is unable to boot and gives the below error message.
Code:
  
 exec(/sbin/init) file not found
 press any key to restart

I tried to search for this error but couldn't find any solution. Hope someone can help

Thanks
