After you log on as the use x (let's call this user "arthur"), see if you can run "pfexec su -" and if you get a # in the command prompt. If you do, then you can still rescue your data. Alternatively, boot from the Belenix live CD, run zpool import -f and see if the pool gets imported. > name of system is "unknown" now, just got tired of this thing now, i don't > want to learn solaris, dont have time for that , just wanted to use it since > the broadband connection and the java environment seemed much more responsive > than linux and gnome too behaves much better in OpenSolaris, on previous > releases i did have sound via OSS now not anymore etc etc and a lot of small > things i see changed from release 59 and dont have the time to go deeply. > this snapshot thing is a killer, but i immediately run into problems with it. > Snapshots are an awesome feature indeed. In case you are interested, try booting from Belenix and see if it detects your sound device. You can take this discussion to belenix-discuss, since zfs-discuss is for the zfs filesystem. > thank you guys for your time and advice since it was all for free. > good luck with this monster, see you all in 6 months > I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss opensolaris as a monster, much less ZFS :) There's sometimes a learning curve (no matter low close to zero it may be). All you need to do, is to calmly read the instructions give earlier on this thread, and also try to use shorter sentences and a fullstop. > Arthur > -- -- Sriram _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
