[SunHELP] Recovering Files

[Zakaria A. Mattar]

Mr. Jameel,
You have to boot your system from the cdrom (boot cdrom -rs) if you have a
backup tape you can format the affected partition by using newufs command
then restore it from the tape otherwise try to check ur files manually after
booting from cdrom.

Hello all,

I wrote a while back saying I was getting a "SCSI Bus is Hung" error on
boot up and just now found out (after finally trying) it was my primary
hard drive, the drive with the actual OS on it that seems to be bad.

Now my question is.. how can I put in the other hard drive (the drive that
I beleive was setup as /usr/local/share) and recover all the files on that
drive?  Whatever partition this was is where I kept all my samba files..

I know this has GOT to be an easy thing to do.. I just can't seem to think
right now.  I tried booting off another drive that had Solaris on it, but
I was getting all sorts of bootup errors because the other drive wasn't in
there and so on.  Please help as soon as possible :)  THANK YOU!
