I dual boot solaris 8 with win98. It works but yesterday when I enter an option to boot solaris it gave me this message: INIT cannot create /var/adm/utmpx INIT failed write of utmpx entry: " " INIT failed write of utmpx entry: " " INIT SINGLE USER MODE ENTER Run Level (0 - 6, s, or S) [3]:0
I tried avery option but still can't load solaris. The win98 is not affected (ok). I remember removing the nsswitch.nis file in /etc, did solaris needed this file? Any idea to fix this or just reinstall solaris.
