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.</para> |
---|
36 | |
---|
37 | <para>The other partitions are virtual slices of this <quote>Whole disk</quote> |
---|
38 | partition. But there are some limitations on the first partion 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 this partition must be root.</para> |
