Booting problem

I am having trouble getting my SUN 3/50 (a dataless machine) to boot from
its own disk.  If I try b sd() or b sd(,2), nothing happens (the local
disk is addressed as sd2).  If I try b le() -a, and get the process
started from the machine used to set up the 3/50, then tell it to boot
vmunix from the local disk (sd2) all goes well.  One possibility:  the
disk used to be a second disk on the server and then was moved, so it may
not be terminated properly.  Is this the problem? Any other suggestions ?
