Possibly (from memory here) the v60x is thinking that its boot disk is on that newly attached array. You'll need to check the bios and make sure its got the internal boot disk first. I _think_ is because the internal disks are on the second scsi channel and external arrays come up on the first scsi channel. < < i have the intention to play with zfs on the extra disks < < < This message posted from opensolaris.org < _______________________________________________ < install-discuss mailing list < install-discuss at opensolaris.org < http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/install-discuss Regards, -- Sean. .
