Hello people, I'd like to ask for an explanation. I have a couple of friends (about 3 people) that tried installing OpenSolaris and wanted to have dual boot either with Windows or with Linux. However, they had all primary partitions on their disks already used up, so they wanted to put OpenSolaris on the extended partition. This was not possible, so they eventually gave up trying OpenSolaris at all, saying it would be much work (and much risk) to re-shuffle all partitions on their disks, just to try out an operating system which they didn't even really know much about.
Since nobody speaks about this (I've done a quick search through this mailing list's archives), I think this issue will not be addressed in near future. My question is: how important is this? Am I just not aware of an easy trick or workaround? Thanks for any reaction... Turcin -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
