SUMMARY- Bad /etc/vfstab

Thanks for all of the responses.  I got 15 responses and they keep coming.

I used info from alot of the repines and did the following to fix my
problem:

ok> bootk cdrom -sw

# mount -o rw /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 /a
# cd /a/etc
# cp vfstab.orig vfstab
# cat vfstab  (ensure it is the right vfstab)
# cd /
# umount /a
# fsck -y /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0
# sync; sync; sync
# halt

OK> boot

I think the bigest thing was that I was not typing in sync before rebooting.

Thanks so much!

I have a bad /etc/vfstab but have a backup file that is good.
To fix it, I am doing the following:

ok> boot cdrom -s

# mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 /mnt
# cd /mnt/etc
# cp vfstab.orig vfstab
# cat vfstab  (ensure it is the right vfstab)

When I reboot, I get the same error that vfstab is bad.
When I look at /etc/vfstab, it is back to the bad one.

Why is this not saving?

Thanks!
