Hello,

 

            I have FreeBSD 6.1 installed on a Sun box and would like to
revert back to Solaris.  I have a problem re-installing because of an extra
partition on my disk that I can't seem to get rid of and it's making the
Solaris installer freak out. Below is how the partition table looks via
format in Solaris.

 

Total disk sectors available: 17672849 + 16384 (reserved sectors)

 

Part      Tag    Flag     First Sector        Size        Last Sector

  0 unassigned    wm                 0          0              0

  1        usr    wm                34      10.00MB         20513

  2        usr    wm             20514      10.00MB         40993

  3        usr    wm             40994      10.00MB         61473

  4        usr    wm             61474      10.00MB         81953

  5        usr    wm             81954      10.00MB         102433

  6        usr    wm            122914       8.37GB         17672848

  8   reserved    wm          17672849       8.00MB         17689232

 

Does anyone know how I can remove partition 8?  

 

Thanks in advance!
