Hello,
I am creating a new disk using the following command:
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/export/home/ramdisk/0 bs=512 count=4096k
after creating the disk, i tool a ufsdump of a solaris 10 filesytem (disk size 512MB)
Code:
ufsdump -cvf /export/home/ufsdump/sol_orig /
and then restored the dump files onto the newly created 2GB disk (after creating a newfs and mounting that disk to /mnt/sol_2gb):
Code:
ufsrestore -rvf /export/home/ufsdump/sol_orig /mnt/sol_2gb
after that, i installed the boot block on the 2gb disk:
Code:
installboot /usr/platform/sun4v/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s3
where, c0t0d0s3 is the newly created 2gb disk.
then I try to use the 2 gb disk to boot the system just by using the boot command.
This is when the SMF services start to load and after everything is loaded, I get the errors. (PCI SubSystem error)
I am using Legion which is a T-2000 simulator (T-1 processor, sun4v arch). I have attached the config. file for the simulator.
When i boot from the original 512Mb image, there is no issue at all.
Could someone help me with why just copying the file system to a bigger disk maybe causing so much trouble.
