I couldn't boot solaris in failsafe mode , Any idea?

Hi members of forum , I am newbie in solaris 10 on x86, and I have a problem at booting time, because I have the boot archive corrupted, I have read that I need to boot in failsafe, however I can抰 because in the grub, I don抰 have that option in the menu, In order to create than option I have to edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst and add these lines

title Solaris failsafe

kernel /boot/multiboot kernel/unix -s

module /boot/x86.miniroot-safe

I think so, but the main problem is that I couldn抰 find the /boot/x86.miniroot-safe in that path, neither (I think) in other folder, and I think although edit the menu.lst file in /boot/grub/ path, because I changed the timeout option, but didn抰 applied in the menu execution?

Do you have any idea?

Thanks in advance

you can also load x86.miniroot-safe onto a usb stick and boot from usb thumb drive.

if you don't have a copy of x86.miniroot-safe on your system, you can copy the file over from installation disk 1 /cdrom/sol_10_1106_x86/boot/x86.miniroot

x86.miniroot & x86.miniroot-safe are one and the same.

hope this helps
