As a newbie to solaris I have just installed solaris 9 on an i386 machine. Checking out the reboot command i typed reboot /?
The system rebooted but it says that it can't find the file /? I am sure this is a really wasy one to solve, can anyone help?

Phil, the "/?" for help is from DOS (as far as I know, the only Solaris command supporting "/?" is ndd). On Unix boxes, type "man reboot" for help.
To reboot your box, type "reboot", or "init 6" or "shutdown -y -g0 -i6".

Hope this helps.
