Tru64 Managers:

I'm trying to make my disk bootable for a restore. After I issue the
following command:
# disklabel -rw /dev/rrz0a rz0a /mdec/rzboot.advfs /mdec/bootrz.advfs
it results to the following message: Bootcode /mdec/bootrz.advfs too big
(Is: 8096, Max: 7680) disklabel: /mdec/bootrz.advfs: File too large.

 Does anybody know what I've done wrong?

Rodney



Below are the steps:

Boot from the CD installation cd (V4.0F)
# disklabel -rwt advfs rz0

# disklabel -e rz0 (modified the partition sizes)

# mkfdmn /dev/rz0a root_domain
ADVFS: using 37389 buffers containing 292.10 megabytes of memory

# mkfset root_domain root

# disklabel -rw /dev/rrz0a rz0a /mdec/rzboot.advfs /mdec/bootrz.advfs
Bootcode /mdec/bootrz.advfs too big (Is: 8096, Max: 7680)
disklabel: /mdec/bootrz.advfs: File too large
