Booting from another disk

[Guest_imported]

Hi,
I have a sun enterprise450 server.
Solaris 7 was installed on the machine. I then added two
new disks and installed solaris 8 on them. Now whenever
I reboot the system it reboots to solaris 8. I have solaris 7
still on c0t0d0 but do not know how to boot the system
to take it to solaris 7.
Please help.
Regards
Saurabh

Press Stop A
at OK prompt
usually bootdisk device is (3) "default disk". Therefore, may be you were installed at Solaris 8.
If you know the disk number you can boot at Ok prompt
example

OK boot disk0
or
oK boot disk1
or
OK boot disk2

to see boot device at OK prompt printenv boot-device.

You can create a boot device alias
Sun's sunsolve has an infodoc # 11854 that describe
how to do this.
If you can't get access to this infodoc let me know.
