Summary Sunfire F4800 problems

Ok, so lots of egg on face with the vfstab file. We got lost on the device
names, and did not see that the "no' to mount at boot time should have been
"yes"

As for the /etc/system file. This one is odd. Although the system was
rebooted after the /etc/system was read, the changes did not show up in
"sysdef" until they were acccessed. Ie: a database created.

regards

It seems that you have the mount at boot flag (number 6) set to no, set 
it to yes and it will mount at boot time.

Have you rebooted the machine since making the change?

I hope this helps.
