Title: sun-ufs loop disk error
Post by: Ed Clarke on February 11, 2003, 11:29:10 PM

Hi,
I get the "sun-ufs file system code doesn't support loop disk labels" error message. Trying to upgrade from sme5.5 on a Quantum scsi drive.
5.5 works ok, but 5.6 keeps coming up with the above error.
Anybody have answers?
Thanks
Ed Clarke

I had same problem with a Seagate Barracuda II 30GB 7200rpm Drive. No matter how I set it in the BIOS, SME 5.6 caused this error. However, I did note that upgrading from 5.5 to 5.6 did not result in the error. Because I wanted a fresh install, I replaced with a Quantum 3GB drive, and no problems !!

So essentially, I went from a faily new whizz bang drive to an old clunker and it worked. Go figure ............
