Re-claiming Linux partiton for Solaris

807559Mar 17 2006 — edited Mar 18 2006
Hi,

I installed my PC (acer TravelMate 260) as a dual boot (Linux & Solaris 10) which works fine. But now I find myself using Linux less and less so I would like to format its partition with ufs and mount it as /scratch or so. (The Solaris partition is a bit small and I start running out of space.)

Can this be done?

Or do I really have to re-partition the drive into one big (primary) partition and re-install Solaris on that one?

Cheers, Peter.

PS. Some things appear easier under Linux...
