Dear All
My Solaris 8 server cannot be booted from its hard disk , returning
the following error message :
'Boot device: /pci(a)1f,0/pci@1,1/ide@d/disk@0,0 File and args:
Bad magic number in disk label
Can't open disk label package
Can't open boot device'
Can you please let me know how can I recover it from this state , as I
need to have access to its saved data?
Thank you

Restore from backup?

You might be able to boot from CD/DVD and read the data.

I tried to boot from cdrom but I am facing with 'No disks found'
message . Does it mean I am facing with hard disk hardware problem?
Thank you

Thank you very much for your help . You are right and the HDD is no
longer usable . I am seeking if I can find a replacement locally.
Thanks again
