%general-entities; ]> Creating a New Partition On a Sparc system we have to create a special partition first. This partition is called Whole disk, and must be the 3rd partition on the disk. The other partitions are virtual slices of this Whole disk partition. But there are some limitations on the first partion of hda or sda on the system. This partition must be less than 2 gigabytes and this partition must be root.
