Corrupt label; bad magic number

  • 772

While trying to install Solaris 10 on a Sun Blade 2500 Silver, I got an error: OpenBoot indicates me a problem with the hard drive: "Corrupt label; bad magic number". Later, during the Solaris installation process, the hard drive is not detected.

What does it mean and how can it be solved?

    Actually, I just had to use the format command in the Solaris installation console. I then chose the disk (only one in my workstation, so it was an easy choice), and things went rolling.
