Hi

I had a one disk pool, that I want to use as a boot disk, but I can't
seem to get rid of the efi label, when i use  format -e  it and try to
relabel, format bitches that it can't set disk geometry or write the
new label.

any one have any clues how to fix this?

james



guess i need to give more info since its a known bug(s)


this is on solaris SX-CR  b39  ... on a u2 usparc

the disk is 36GB scsi, that was a zfs pool so has a  efi label on it..
i just want to nuke it all

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0   bs=10k count=1024  doesn't work

format analyse verify didn't work

okay i finally got it working...  format -e   scsi  format
apparently did the trick

i guess i will leave it up to you guys as to what bug report to adjust
or create.. there are many on this issue.


James
