Be aware that Solaris on x86 has two types of partitions. There are fdisk partitions (c0t0d0p1, etc) which is what gparted, windows and other tools will see. There are also Solaris partitions or slices (c0t0d0s0). You can create or edit these with the 'format' command in Solaris. These are created in an fdisk partition that is the SOLARIS2 type. So yeah, it's a partition table inside a partition table.
That's not correct, at least not technically. Solaris *slices* within the Solaris fdisk partition, are not also known as partitions. They are simply known as slices. By calling them "Solaris partitions or slices" you are just adding confusion. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
