/etc/initscript: /etc/bcheckrc: not found
If the system displays the
/etc/initscript: /etc/bcheckrc: not found
error message when you boot up,
the /etc/bcheckrc file is missing.
The init utility executes bcheckrc
according to instructions in the
/etc/inittab file whenever the system is booted.
This utility checks the root filesystem
and repairs it, if necessary.
The /etc/bcheckrc file
should be on the hard disk when you boot the system.
If /etc/bcheckrc is missing,
use this procedure to recover it:
-
Bring up the system in single-user mode
by entering the root password at the prompt.
-
Clean the root filesystem manually with
fsck before doing anything on the system:
/etc/fsck /dev/root
-
When filesystem has been checked and, (if necessary) repaired, use the
Backup Manager
to restore the /etc/bcheckrc file from
your root filesystem backup. You can also restore the file from the
command line by inserting the first volume of your last full backup
of the root filesystem into the tape drive and entering:
cd /
cpio -idv -I /dev/rct0 etc/bcheckrc
The default tape device is linked to /dev/rct0. If you
are using a different device (such as /dev/rctmini),
substitute it for /dev/rct0.
-
Enter haltsys at the prompt and reboot the system.
For more information on bcheckrc, see the
bcheckrc(ADM)
manual page.
