I have 4 OS installed (prior to this version of Solaris) on my machine being Windows7, BSD on primary, Linux Mint and openSuSE (this is my fav.) on extended with swap partition. Swap partition and Solaris partition share same #. There is a policy of solaris that goes like "preserve solaris" (it is unlikely though since oracle has overshadowed the sun -:), this being the case the installer thought there is Solaris install present. I had to convert the swap to ext4 in order to get solaris install done.
When I try to make install I ensure that I allocate minimum 20 gig of space for non Linux Distro. The error message actually tells you whats wrong. It got me worried over the hardware(disk) condition since I got a replacement under warranty abt a couple of months back. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
