[indiana-discuss] [Fwd: beadm: Unable to activate opensolaris-x (build 95)]

[andrew]

Booting a ZFS pool from an EFI labelled disk has never been supported. I suspect they have just added checking for an EFI labelled disk in a recent build of beadm.

Can you possibly post the output of these commands:

fdisk /dev/rdsk/c5t0d0p0
fdisk /dev/rdsk/c5t1d0s0

I suspect what you have is an SMI labelled disk (c5t0d0) and an EFI labelled disk (c5t1d0). How did you add the second disk to the root pool?

(Bootadm should be printing the reason for the failure. Users should not be expected to activate secret debugging options just to find out why a command failed).

Thanks

Andrew.
