what is the output of "svcs -xv"?

Old 03-20-2010
Code:
# svcs -xv
svcs: svcs.c:335: Unexpected libscf error: invalid argument.  Exiting.
svc:/system/filesystem/root:default#

This is after I copied the files from /usr/bin and /usr/sbin to /toolbelt and changed path to /toolbelt.

Why did you copy those files? Your purpose?

I copied these files to /toolbelt because upon bootup (My original question) /usr will not mount. There for, I can not use simple commands such as, ls, more, vi, etc. Then went entering the setup, I can change my PATH to /toolbelt to have some form of functionality.

Any idea on how to swap this harddrive from a V210 into a V440? Anyone?

My question for you, how did you clone your disks? which method?

reboot to failsafe. Mount then ufsdump - and restore to the other.

I'm unsure how that would result in that drive working fine in a V210 but not a V440. Also, how a V440 with a full install would not work in a V210. You think the way the drive was cloned affects this issue that I'm having?

perhaps.... but was your disk in the v210 partitioned the same way as it is now in the v440? meaning /usr, /var sitting on separate slice?
or after you ufsrestore, did you do fsck on all the slices in single user before you booted up the v440?
