[SunHELP] how to auto-reconfigure the device special files

Imagine this situation:

You have restored a system which was originally using target 0 SCSI disk as
the boot device.
The disks you are using at the moment to restore the system are target 1 and
2. After restoration
the only device files you have are addressing target 0 on the newly restored
system and no special 
device file exists for target 1 and 2. 

Because of this problem, whenever you want to reboot the server, it fails to
find the special files of 
newly created boot device (target 1 or 2). 'boot -r' also doesn't help. 

To resolve this problem I had to do a messy thing and boot the server from a
bootable device and 
then 'mknod' the required device files. 

Have you any other idea or is there any better/quicker way to do this? 

Please do not tell me to screw off the server and change the target ids
manually! It is more messy 
than what I did!!
