Dave,
I understand what you mean but I was not involved in the decision
process that lead to this situation.
Now this is my job and, if it is not possible, I have to find another
way to make it work.
I have already a few solutions (2 separate disks instead of one, use
OpenSolaris and Linux instead of 2x OpenSolaris, ...).
I was wondering why installing 2x OpenSolaris, each on a primary
partition, would cause a problem.
Sorry for boring with my question,
Patrick
I am trying to dig and get the exact reason why this but IIRC this has
is prevented since there is a device name space conflict.
The slice devices that are used in addressing the disk are relative to
the containing FDISK partition. There isn't any support in whichever
driver (sda?) to map multiple FDISK partitions into the device space.
You may be able to play games with partition id's and GRUB to get it to
work, but it's explicitly untested and unsupported.
Dave
