Easiest way is to just comment the DiskSuite (md) related lines out of
/etc/system, or delete them. They're only in place for use by DiskSuite,
and since you're not using DiskSuite, you can happily get rid of them!

A default /etc/system file, as shipped with Solaris, has nothing but
comments and blank lines in it!
