Thanks everyone. I *finally* got there:

but not without a lot of hassles.
I was getting close at some points to thinking it would be easier to
reinstall the OS on the new disk and then copy what I needed back from
the original root partition.
What was odd was to find the root partition of a disk could be
/dev/dsk/c1t1d0s1 when in to top or bottom slot of the Blade 2000.
Unlike the SCSI disks I am used to, the 'cx' where x was 1 or 2, do not
stay constant with the two slots.
Randy's suggestion of:
1. mv /a/etc/path_to_inst /a/etc/path_to_inst.original
2. rm /a/etc/path_to_inst.old
3. devfsadm -v -C -r /a
did not work for me - it simply never updated /a/etc/install
Finally more by luck than skill I got to the point it would boot if I typed
OK> boot disk0
rather than
OK> boot disk
Then the page Trinean pointed me to on Sunshack
http://www.sunshack.org/data/sh/2.1/...doc/40133.html
got that fixed with:
# luxadm set_boot_dev /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0
which updated boot-device in the EEPROM
Its a bit worrying I don't feel as confident at restoring data from a
damaged disk as I used to on the Ultra 80. But I guess I'll find a way!
