1. Booting in single user mode and mounting root hard disk
Most important step in diagnosing the booting problems is booting the system in single user mode and examining the hard disk for possible errors & work out the corrective measure.
Single user mode can be achieved by any of the
following methods :-
ok> boot -s (from root disk)
ok> boot net -s (from network)
ok>boot cdrom -s (from
cdrom)
Rebooting with command: cdrom -s
Configuring the /devices directory
Configuring the /dev directory |
INIT: SINGLE USER MODE
#
# fsck /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s0
# mount /dev/dsk/c0t3d0s0 /mnt
Rebooting with command: cdrom -s
Configuring the /devices directory
Configuring the /dev directory |
INIT: SINGLE USER MODE
#
# fsck /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s0
# mount /dev/dsk/c0t3d0s0 /mnt
Perform the required
operation on mounted disk , now accessible through /mnt ,& unmount the hard
disk after you are done ;
