The ROOT kept missing from my snv_99 bootdisk. I have been able to access all datasets, -except- the root file system. I saves the data of /export /export/home, but I lost /opt/sfw and have to recompile all those programs I had in there; if only it had been a seperate dataset ;-) mountable: rpool rpool/export rpool/export/home rpool/ROOT/snv_99 (contains just two dirs: /etc and /boot) UNmountable: rpool/ROOT (changing "legacy" did not help So, I gave up on this one. I have no idea why and how the system became unaccessable. All datasets turned out healthy. Alas, all but one were accessable and the one that was not was the one needed to boot ;-) I did a reinstall from scratch off the snv_99 DVD. At first it did not work. It hanged after checking both networkcards. I reformatted the harddrive with a SXDE (older) DVD tot UFS and started the installtion of the snv_99 DVD again. This time all wen well and I'm sitting after a brand new ZFS nevada.b99 system with all other datasets restored. A little more worried about ZFS than I was before, but I still use it. It is -SO- easy once used to it ;-) -- Dick Hoogendijk -- PGP/GnuPG key: 01D2433D ++ http://nagual.nl/ + SunOS sxce snv99 ++ _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
