Partition Examples - (Sun)

by Jeff Hunter, Sr. Database Administrator

Overview

This document provides several example disk-partitioning examples that

can be used for installing Sun Solaris on. Along with each partitioning
example, I provide the filesystems mounted on those partitions.

Example #1
