Error after installing tape drive
Hi,
I am a newbie to Solaris, I have a SunFire V120 box, i was trying to install a tape drive(HP SureStore DAT24), i did the install in this manner.
# rm -rf /etc/path_to_inst
# init 6
later at the "ok" prompt i gave "boot -ar" after doing that it asked me various options i accepted the default values, when it asked for rebuilding the /etc/path_to_inst file i said "y", but later everything went wrong.
This is the output,

After doing some google i found that nothing is wrong i just need to comment some lines in the /etc/system file. But still i wasn't able to bacause the system is mounted in read only mode.
Thanking you in advance.

Rajendra Rait.
