Hello, nice stuff this OpenSolaris (OS). But, is it possible to create 2nd slice on HD and format it on x86 pls ? I would like to share data on my dualboot notebook (OS/FreeBSD). FreeBSD can mount Solaris, but not vice-versa AFAIK. I have created the 2nd OS slice with fdisk and would like to format the 2nd OS slice from within OS, but I am not able to find any mean how to do it. BTW, format says disk c0d0 got 2546 cylinders, but the disk got 9729 cylinders and the 1st slice got 2546 cylinders. Does format make any difference between disk and slice in this case ? Here is the data.
# fdisk /dev/rdsk/c0d0p0 Total disk size is 9729 cylinders Cylinder size is 16065 (512 byte) blocks Cylinders Partition Status Type Start End Length % ========= ====== ============ ===== === ====== === 1 Active Solaris2 0 2548 2549 26 2 BSD OS 2549 3822 1274 13 3 Solaris2 3823 9728 5906 61 format> current Current Disk = c0d0 <DEFAULT cyl 2546 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63> /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED],1/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 partition> print Current partition table (original): Total disk cylinders available: 2546 + 2 (reserved cylinders) Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks 0 root wm 134 - 2045 14.65GB (1912/0/0) 30716280 1 swap wu 3 - 133 1.00GB (131/0/0) 2104515 2 backup wm 0 - 2546 19.51GB (2547/0/0) 40917555 3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 7 home wm 2046 - 2546 3.84GB (501/0/0) 8048565 8 boot wu 0 - 0 7.84MB (1/0/0) 16065 9 alternates wu 1 - 2 15.69MB (2/0/0) 32130 Thank you, Cheers, -vlado Vladimir Botka _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
