FreeBSD with a GEOM kernel can understand a Solaris FFS. A non-GEOM kernel can also, but fsck is deadly. At this point, though all you care about is that FreeBSD can understand a Solaris disk label. You can now boot the ISO and install FreeBSD onto 'a'.

With devfs a device will "appear" when it is opened. Thus doing newfs /dev/ad0a will open the device and devfs will create it in /dev for you at that time.

Once you have it setup they way you want it (ie install Solaris with partitions set aside for FreeBSD), you boot a FreeBSD/sparc64 cd and do the install into the already set aside partition (from the Solaris install). You don't use the FreeBSD disklabel tool at all, as it doesn't read Solaris disklabels. While the kernel is smart enough to know about it, that logic hasn't made it into the disklabel userland tool. -gordon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-sparc Fri Apr 19 13:10:24 2002 Delivered-To: freebsd-sparc@freebsd.org Received: from virtual-voodoo.com (bdsl.66.12.217.106.gte.net [66.12.217.106]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id ED66737B41D; Fri, 19 Apr 2002 13:10:18 -0700 (PDT) Received: from inlafrec (bdsl.66.12.217.51.gte.net [66.12.217.51]) (authenticated bits=0) by virtual-voodoo.com (8.12.3/8.12.2) with ESMTP id g3JKAEOo023825; Fri, 19 Apr 2002 15:10:15 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from steve@virtual-voodoo.com) Message-ID: <020b01c1e7de$39141d20$33d90c42@officescape.net> From: "Steven Ames" To: "Gordon Tetlow" , "Tomi Vainio - Sun Finland -" Cc: , References: Subject: Re: Preserving Solaris disklabel when installing FreeBSD?
