Dear friends: Recently I've downloaded Solaris 10 x86 Express (4 CD + 1 Lang CD) for evaluation purposes - I'm an sys-admin on a collegue and we've running some servers for a long time on Solaris 2.8 x86 and some others on Red Hat.
Well, I decided to install Solaris 10 on my own PC (Celeron 1 Ghz - 256 MB, 40 GB Seagate harddisk); in that disk I got the following partition scheme: 1 - Linux swap partition (aprox. 500 MB) 2 - ReiserFS partition (aprox. 20 GB where my Linux is on) 3 - An test partition (aprox. 17 GB where I test others systems, last was FreeBSD 5.3-CURRENT). The first problem I've during installation process was at this point: When I selected all the software I want to install (size aprox. 10 GB) then the install asks me to select the disk where to make a solaris partition. I select c0d0 and then I remove the third partition (fdisk "sees" as other type) and create a new partition (remeber, size aprox. 17GB) so I got the final partition scheme (as fdisk reports): 1 - SOLARIS (500MB) 2 - Other (20GB) 3 - PRI DOS (17GB) When press F2 I obtain a message saying more or less that there is not enough space to install Solaris... I obtain the same even I deselect a lot of software to install (last try only 4GB). What do yo believe is the error? What I'm doing, is it allright? Don't know how to solve this problem, so thanks in advance to anyone who can help me!
