I've got another disk due to show up over the weekend, also a used
disk. Couple of others floating around that may or may not be as
good. It's a Sparc LX.
What's been advised is to put a new(er) drive in sd0 and jumper the
funky one to another scsi id, then do a minimal reinstall on the new
drive, and tar or dd /usr off the old drive. Sd0 is my boot drive.
The box is for running a trial installation of INN and almost all the
INN stuff in on a second drive.
