With linux fdisk, i can create a solaris partition. But how can i create
slices for copying solaris filesystem on it?
Is there a solution?
Not from within linux.
ok
let me take an example:
on a dual boot machine, i saw solaris form linux, and for example i can
mount solaris / with:
henry@ultra20:~$ uname -a
Linux ultra20 2.6.12-10-386 #1 Fri Nov 18 11:51:02 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
henry@ultra20:~$ sudo mount -r -t ufs -o ro,ufstype=sunx86 /dev/sda9 /mnt
henry@ultra20:~$ cat /mnt/etc/release
Solaris 10 1/06 s10x_u1wos_19a X86

so solaris is installed in sda2 partition
Now, my idea is to do:
dd if=/dev/sda2 of=solaris_archive
Then, on a linux machine without solaris, i will try:
- fdisk to create a solaris partition with id bf, for example /dev/hda7
- dd if=solaris_archive of=/dev/hda7
Is this possible?
