Solaris m/c not booting
My Solaris machine is not booting.It just stops at the point

Boot device: /pci@1e,600000/ide@d/disk@0,0:a File and args:

Whether i try boot or boot -s it is stopping at this point..

I tried boot cdom -s.It went into single user mode but I am not able to run a fsck in this mode.

Right now I want to run a fsck and reboot my system.
