Hello,
I could be succesful copying the damage disk content to a new disk with
dd bs=512 conf=noerror,sync if=/dev/da6 of=/dev/da5
da5 is the new disk and it is an extarnal cabinet disc 80 PIN SCSI SCA
then I did
sunlabel da6 > /tmp/label
sunlabel -R da5 /tmp/label
everything went perfect.
I took the new disk out form cabinet and I open my Sun Blade 1000 to
replace the boot disk...
what a surprise!!!
the 80 PIN SCA interface won't fit in the internal socket!!
the inside boot disk socket is different I do not know even the name of
the socket SCSI interface...
what kind of SCSI disk should I look for to replace the internal sun
blade 1000 disks ?
thank you very much
Rick
