    I'll try this once again.

    I got one reply that had some useful information, but I need more guidance.

    I have an E250 with an external D1000 all set up with DiskSuite,
    including mirrored root drive and raid 10 on the D1000.

    It is running Solaris 7.

    I need to rebuild it (and repartitian the root drive) by installing
    Solaris 8 without losing the state database information or any of the
    data on the external D1000.

    Can anyone give me assurrances, guidance, steps ....

    Is it possible to install Solaris 8, repartitian the root drive, and
    keep the rest of the system intact?
