BootPROM device aliases simplify life when booting a SPARC-based Solaris system. If change to the system invalidate a device alias, leaving it may complicate matters during panic times when things need to be clear. This recipe describes deleting a deivce alias with nvunalias.


To delete the device alias oldboot use the following command from the BootPROM (ok prompt):

nvunalias oldboot

The only reference needed by nvunalias is the alias, not the device path.
