I have a real emergency. I have a Sun Fire V240 UltraSparc server and am connected via the Serial Mgmnt Port with a Laptop. I have been building an Oracle database on it for the past couple months, not getting very far along with it , when suddenly, the system had a fatal crash. I've lost the shadow file, the passwd file, and cannot even boot up the system now.. I have resorted to attempting to boot from the Operating System CD labeled: 1/06 Solaris 10 Oprerating System for x64/x86 DVD. Packaged with the server were also other DVD's, one labeled: 1/06 Solaris 10 Operating System for Sparc DVD. I don't know which one is correct, but neither one will allow me to get ahold of the op sys. I cannot get passed the password prompting except for the sc mode for ALOM, then from there, to the ok prompt, then I'm back where I started-->> having to reboot. That doesn't help me at all. Very little functionality available there. Here are a few error messages when booting up:
ok boot cdrom s
Boot device: /pci@1e,600000/ide@d/cdrom@0,0:f File and args: s
Bad magic number in disk label
Can't open disk label package
Can't open boot device
ok <prompt>
Please --->>somebody help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
