Sol Express Dev Edition : Cannot Create Duplicate fdisk Partitions (c1d0)
807557Dec 27 2007 — edited Jan 21 2008hi everyone
I'm tryin to install Solaris Express Dev Edition on the *3rd Partition* (15GB) on a HP Desktop 763n with
Windows Vista Ultimate installed on 1st Partition (40GB),
Ubuntu 7.10 installed on 2nd Partition (15GB).
4th Partition is Linux Swap (2GB) and
2.5GB is unallocated space. ( HD size: 74.5GB)
After reaching 5% installation fails. Installation log says: Cannot create duplicate fdisk partitions (c1d0) .
Previously before installing Ubuntu, I tried to install Solaris Express on 2nd partition and installation was failing similarly and installation log said:
Not enough free space to create Solaris fdisk partition (c1d0) [ also after installation reaching 5% ]
Before starting installation I did run Solaris Express installation check tool 1.2 ( http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/hcts/install_check_sx.html ) and it said Solaris Express can be installed on this HP desktop. [ HP 763n Pentium-4 2.5 GHz, 1.5GB RAM, 128MB nVIDIA GeForce FX 5200, HP DVD writer, Dell 20" LCD ]
Any help is greatly appreciated. (By the way, Vista Ultimate & Ubuntu are working fine. At system start up I do get options to load Ubuntu / Vista)
