Well, it's really unlikely to be :d through :h.
If you gave information about what's on the flash drive, it would
be possible to be more specific. Does it have an FDISK partition
on it? If so, then :a corresponds to the first FDISK partition,
:b to the second, etc.

You can determine the c#t#d# part of it by looking in /dev/dsk
and using the process of elimination. Try typing "format" to get
a list of disks you already have. You could also try "df -k".
Nobody can tell you which c# it is specifically, because these
are assigned dynamically by the system and will depend on the
particulars of what hardware you have, what order you installed
it, etc. You'll have to figure that out for yourself.
But anyway, once you have gone through the process of elimination
and determined the /dev/dsk/c#t#d# part of the device name, the
remaining possibilities are few enough that you should be able to
try them all. I'd start with s0:a through s0:c, then try
s2:a through s2:c.
I've set followups to comp.unix.solaris and comp.sys.sun.admin,
because I don't really think figuring out which /dev/dsk entry
corresponds to something is relevant for the other groups.
