You'd need to use "newfs /dev/rdsk/c1d0s0". "s0" refers to the first
slice
within the Solaris2 partition. The list you posted above is the list
of slices
inside the Solaris2 partition.
"...p0" in Solaris refers to the entire physical disk. So if you dump
512 bytes
from the start of "...p0" you can see the MBR contents. This is not
where you'd
want to create a filesystem!
"...p1" - "...p4" refer to the first four primary partitions, similar
to hda1 ... hda4
on Linux.
Thank you.
Having a new disk, I'm trying again. With "fdisk /dev/rdsk/c1d1p0", I
created an active Solaris2 partition, and exited. Then, Using "format
/dev/rdsk/c1d1p0", I created the root, swap, and home partition. Was
this correct? Or should I have used "format /dev/rdsk/c1d1p0" for root
only? This seems not the case, since "format /dev/rdsk/c1d1p1" gives "no
disk set".
When I want to create the filesystem "newfs /dev/rdsk/c1d1s6", it says
it's out of diskspace.
