Kamalov,
First allocate your partitions using the "fdisk" command making the first
partition no more then 500MB. Make at least 3 partitions 2 for Windows
and at least one for Solaris.
Second install your Windows95/NT software which must be installed on the first
partition below sector 1024 ( thats why we don't make the first partition anymore
then 500MB). You can allocate other partitions to Windows95/NT as a drive
D if you want. A second or third partition must be allocated for Solaris.Additionally you can find the latest Drivers Update disks from "ftp.uunet"

I am trying to install and run Solaris 2.6 on Intel platform (NEC
PII300/4.3GBHD NT/95 and 800MB partition allocated for Solaris).
Here is the problem: Installation of a system went without a glitch. But
when it came to booting a system gave me a message saying:DISK: IDE(ATA) QUANTUM FIREBALL ST4.3A
/isa/ata@1,1f 0/cmdr@ 0,0:a:
Error message from mount:
Can't open -- No VTOC
I don't know what is wrong with it? Installation went fine... It again
prompts me to reinstall, but alas, again the result is the same...!Can anyone of you P-L-E-A-S-E HELP!!
Cheers,
Alex
