Here is the output.

/dev/hdb1 looks like swapspace - not mounted
mount: you must specify the filesystem type

Is it possible that Debian will not read the partitions?
It's probably of type "ufs". You might try "mount -t ufs /dev/hdb1
/mnt/temp4sol" (although partition 1 probably is swap, in which case
that won't work).
You'll need to find out which partition the data is on. I like cfdisk,
but it's not as reliable as plain ol' fdisk. You might try "fdisk" instead.
You mentioned having seven machines. If the other six are still running
Solaris 9, you can look in it's "/etc/vfstab" to see what partitions
hold what.
