bootblock location is /usr/platform/`uname -m`/lib/fs/ufs
bring the system in singleusermode
go to /usr/platform/`uname -m`/lib/fs/ufs location
then exute command is installboot bootblk /dev/rdsk/c#t#d#s0

Answer / prasad
first we need to know the boot block loacation
i.e /usr/platform/'uname -m'/lib/fs/ufs is the location for
bootblock.
then go to single user mode using #init 0
then u need to run the command ok> installboot bootblk
c#t#d#s0. so the bootblock is located at bootable disk.
