    hi all,
    i wanted to change my kernel from 32 to 64 bits. so i used the following command sequence:
    #ln -fs /usr/lib/boot/unix_64 /unix
    #ln -fs /usr/lib/boot/unix_64 /usr/lib/boot/unix
    #bosboot -ad /dev/ipldevice
    #shutdown -r now

    All commands were successfull. Now, after coming up, the system is again restarting.
    During each boot, it is able to startup sync, erro, tcpip daemons & after that giving some FATAL ERROR like this:
    ***********
    cron failure:
    qdaemon:FATAL ERROR 0781-114 can not cd to /var/spool/lpd/qdir
    qdaemon:errno=2 A file or directory does not exist.
    ***********
    And just after this msg, the system again goes to restart.

    Any solution for this?
    Thanx in advance...

    Regards,
