Rename a Drive

[uncgis]

I have two hard drives in a SunBlade. I need to name one of the drives to u01. I have vi the etc/vfstabs file and tried to rename the file there...but whenever I reboot the Sun the drives does not mount...it gives the error 'No mount point found for u01' Does anyone have any suggestions of how to rename the drive?

The entries in /etc/vfstab point to devices in /dev/rdsk and /dev/dsk. The entries in the /dev directory are soft links to /devices... Usually a software package like Disk Suite create new links in the /dev directory. Disk Suite creates md (metadevice) disk names. I guess you could try to create a soft link in /dev/rdsk and /dev/dsk that points to the proper /devices entry. Never tried it.

You need a empty directory to mount to you need to create a mount point. As root type mkdir /u01 if you have that created and it still is not mounting then there is another other issue at hand.
