33  <para>On a Sparc system we have to create a special partition first. This
34  partition is called <quote>Whole disk</quote>, and must be the 3rd partition
35  on the disk. The other partitions are virtual slices of this
36  <quote>Whole disk</quote> partition. </para>

38  <para>There are some limitations on the first partition of
39  <filename class="devicefile">hda</filename> or <filename
40  class="devicefile">sda</filename> on the system. This partition must be less
41  than 2 gigabytes, and it must be root.</para>
