Hai,
I am using a Sun solaris 2.6 here.  While system startup it gives "Can't =
Open Boot Device" and hangs in there.  When I chekced the "Printenv" I =
got the boot-device is assigned to  "disk0".  But still it does not boot =
from that device.   What could be done to resolve this, could you please =
help.

PS : For a similar problem posted earlier you had replied with "try the =
luxadm command" .  This could only be possible once the system is comes =
up, is it not ?. =20

My system here gives the cant open boot device messages and stays in the =
OK prompt.  Please help

Best Regards
