I need to vi hostname.eri0 and the fstab file because the system wont come up
 but cant in single user mode.

I have to control C to get into Single User mode and get this

Boot device: bootdisk  File and args:
SunOS Release 5.8 Version Generic_108528-15 64-bit

Hostname: SAMSserver
^C
INIT: Cannot create /var/adm/utmpx

INIT: failed write of utmpx entry:"  "

INIT: failed write of utmpx entry:"  "


INIT: SINGLE USER MODE


when I vi I get this

SAMSserver:/etc# vi hostname.eri0
"/var/tmp" No such file or directory

Thanks
