well sometimes you have to laugh at yourself... on my sparcstation 20 I got suse to load as far as YAST and here I go trying to get fancy and do custom partitions... I saw all the existing solaris partition and said why not and deleted em all.. even something called "Whole Disk" wow.. was that an error... suse said it couldn't format my drives and failed the install tried to reinstall Solaris 7 (the only Solaris CD I have) and solaris says you have no hard drives...
luckily for me the zoot build of redhat 6 nicely formatted my drives(replacing the "magic number") and installed redhat. so now I know the machine works runs and Linux runs fairly well... Redhat tho only setup / and /boot... hmmm I wonder well I'm off to trying suse again seeing if I can not screw it up this time. wish me luck...
