X-Mailer: VM 7.00 under 21.4 (patch 6) "Common Lisp" XEmacs Lucid Reply-To: Tomi.Vainio@Sun.COM Sender: owner-freebsd-sparc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Documentation says that I can label disk on Solaris and FreeBSD supports this label. I've installed latest Solaris to my scratch box using only half of the disk. Now I wanna install FreeBSD on different slice and use same slice 1/b for swap. How I do this? Disklabel don't understand my Solaris vtoc and if label it Solaris is lost until I make correct partition table. # disklabel -r ad0 disklabel: bad pack magic number (label is damaged, or pack is unlabeled) Tomppa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
