Hmm; what is the root cause for the install problem? Was it the existence of a Linux swap as extended partition? Or the position / size of one of the primary / extended partitions? There have been several cases where the OpenSolaris installer refuses to change the fdisk partition table because it thinks one of the fdisk partitions uses blocks that extend beyond the end of the disk. Or maybe a completely different problem ? Do you have a "fdisk -R -W - /dev/rdsk/c?t0d0p0" dump of the of fdisk partition information (or the equivalent under Linux) of the disk, when the OpenSolaris installer failed? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
