Hallo,

I  have a big issue.. with the installer from the original CD  2009.06 . I 
would like install it on a sytem with an EFI Partition and more  4 partitions 
(configured as GUID Table with  an other disk utility )  ... BUT  , at this 
version of the  install CD there is no way to partion  better  the  disk ... 
better as fdisk...

With a HD configured as GPT Table ,  the installer  read an EFI , good but  
understand  this partion is configured for the whole disk... UNABLE to install 
a new partition ...  , very BAD...

and If  made  a trick , change the ID of the EFI .. it seems that i can 
install the os but  after the install the Installer change the label and other 
stuffs are  deleted .. same case : very BAD...

I see : 

- a new  opensolaris CD , but it seems that we cannot dowload  a 2010.xxx at 
this time ... and i ask me if  it will be possible...

- or  what i can do : i make an installation with this trick.. save the 
partition table information .. and the partition itself with an dd for 
example... and after a new parted -  relabeling - install other  stuffs -- 
recopy the saved image to the empty partition and hope that a boot manager can 
integrate the OpenSolaris well..
But I will make that only if there will be a chance that is working otherwise 
I must    die  the idea to install OpenSolaris  on this system.

Anybody has this experience ?

 Thank you very much...
Best regards
Claude Ang?loz
