Yes, I've tried using '/dev/dsk' and '/dev/rdsk' with same result

mmmm ok
So, the output of 'rmformat -l' should print all the partitions too...?

Maybe Solaris doesn't like the partitioning schema I made with linux fdisk,

Yes, I think I did a complete installation, but I'm not sure.
Is there any way to see what FS are supported by the 'mount' command?¿

Thanks for you answers...
