[i]did you do a devfsadm after plugging in the drive?[/i] Sean,
of course not! I have only been on Unix and Linux for 10 years, but not on Solaris; and therefore completely ignorant of the mere existence of that command! Thanks a bunch! And now it works ... [I do wonder, though, why it is necessary to do so manually, the drive showed anywhere else (other OSes, I mean), when I panickedly thought it was DOA. It was not.] Uwe Now I wonder if my earlier batch of troubles with weird behaviour of LU might have had to do with me ignorantly plugging drives about without ever using this command (boot archive and format would point to different drives)? Before, the old DVD was always /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0 against all odds: it is the one and only IDE and I always expected it to be on c0t0d0. Now, finally, it is. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
