I am about to upgrade an old 5.1 box to 5.1A PK6 tomorrow so I am doing some testing today on a 'decomissioned' DS20 This was on 5.1A already . I have booted from the 5.1 CD install disk to create a 5.1 system , then I want to do a installupdate to 5.1A etc. The problem I am having is the dreaded 'Init: Command is respawning too quickly - Check for possible errors" "id: cons "/usr/sbin/getty console console vt100" It seems that /sbin and /usr won't play. I have rebooted back to single user , and the root partition is OK on dsk0a but /usr and /var will not mount (on dsk0d and dsk0g) Any quick pointers to sort this out? Would it be the firmware?
