Is that on Solaris 10 release bits?
The partition type was changed in Solaris 10 build 72, so there should be no
conflicts now.
It was a problem in getting the process updated, and it was decided to wait
until S10 was released to do that. In the future, it's my understanding that
only Solaris will be installed on Sun hardware. I'll need to see that to
believe it, but that's what I've been told.
