I have a SparcStation 10. I am having problems formatting the the hard drive.
I boot from the cd-rom (external). I then get to the point where it asks to partition the hard drive. I remove all existing partitions. Select S to create a Sun partition. I creates a Linux partition, a Linux Swap partition, and the Whole Drive Sun partition. I then delete the 2 linux partitions and create the ones that I need. Partition 1 - 1 gig for / Partition 2 - 128 Meg swap Partition 3 - Whole Disk Sun Partition Partition 4 - 1/2 of whats left for /usr Partition 5 - other 1/2 for /home It formats the swap and root with no problem but as soon as I try to format either of the last 2 partition I get a "Kernel Panic Free List Corrupted." Is there something that I have wrong? I have a SparcStation 20 that I did the same procedure on and it worked fine.
