Hi,<br><br>I'm trying to do a mksysb on a rs6000 system with aix 4.2,<br>but it complains that the /unix file is missing.<br>I then checked the /unix file and it's linked to<br>/usr/lib/boot/unix_mp but the file is 0 bytes !!??<br><br>Is this ok (we have rebooted the system without any problems<br>earlier)? What do I do now ?<br><br>//Depsi<br>
 
the file /usr/lib/boot/unix_mp is 0 bytes ? &lt;raised eyebrows&gt; <p>Mike<br><a href=mailto:michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com>michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com</a><br><a href= Cargill's Corporate Web Site</a><br>
 
Ok.....<br><br>I think you may need to have someone login and look at your system. Email me if I can help. <p>Mike<br><a href=mailto:michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com>michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com</a><br><a href= Cargill's Corporate Web Site</a><br>
 
You can try installing <b>bos.up</b> or <b>bos.mp</b> to reinstall a copy of your kernel, up is UniProcesson, and mp is obviously MultiProcessor (for SMP machines). But must be a reason you haven't&nbsp;&nbsp;that file! You must to investigate!<br><br>I hope it works...
