HI guys, I have a very old Sun Ultra 10 box at home I have been using as a backup server via Samba and admining via webmin, all it does it store data on a IDE 160 gig drive. I have been using it for years and years and all has been good till now, its running Solaris 9 on it. I only turn it on when needed, but last week I noticed it was not coming up. I normally dont have a monitor on it and I just manually map a drive to the Samba share.
When the map timed out and I could not connect via webmin i looked at the boot process via a monitor and I say a fatal CPU panic. I am assuming here that a CPU has finally failed. My problem is that I dont have another SUN box that I can use to mount it and get all my important backup data off.
so my question, how am I going to get the data off? I can pull the IDE drive out but how am I going to view and read it?
any idea guys?
thank you in advance peeps
