I received a number of responses and ended up doing two things to make it work: 1) Boot to CDROM, mount root disk, rm -rf /etc/path_to_inst /dev/* /devices/* 2) devfsadm -r <mount point for root disk> 3) boot -a and recreate path_to_inst It boots normally now. Thanks to everyone for all the help over the last few days! >>> "Blair Rampling" <brampling@methanex.com> 08/06/02 03:44PM >>> I have done the following: create root slice ufsrestore root slice from old server from tape installboot to create a boot block edit /etc/vfstab edit /etc/system to eliminate MD entries Now, the system boots but it is unable to find any disks. It claims to want to do a manual fsck but when I boot from the hard disk into single user mode, it can't find the disks either with fsck or format. When booting from cd-rom, it finds the disks no problem. There is obviously something held over from the old system that is stopping this process from working, but I can't figure out what it is. The old system is a V880 and the new system is a v480.
