Hello,
Can any one tell me now to restore root to a different
disk. Here is the problem, we have an 8200 that came
w/digital Unix on an RZ24 (Dkd0). We would like to put
root on our swxcr disk, re0. We were trying to avoid
reloading the software from scratch. What I have done
so far is:
Modified this line in the config file:
config vmunix root on re0 swap on re0
rebuilt Kernel (moved Kernel to re0)
newfs /dev/re0a
mount /dev/re0a /mnt
vdump rz24a vrestore to /mnt
edited /mnt/fstab to mount /dev/re0a /
also added swap
and rebooted re0a
I receive this error:
panic: vfs_mountroot: cannot mount root
sync the disks
DUMP: problem w/specified dumpdev 0xa00001, status 19, not used
DUMP: no primary swap, not ecplicit dumpdev.
nowhere to put header giving up.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks in advance,
liz Zukowski
