How to partition disk in Solaris 11

Peter Wahl-OracleNov 9 2011 — edited Nov 15 2011
Dear All,

Solaris newby question: I started the live CD of Solaris 11 11/11 in VBox 4.1.4 (host is 64 bit Ubuntu 10.04.3 with 8 GB of RAM) and hit the 'Install' button.

Question, how do I format my 30 GB VBox disk so that I have 4 GB of SWAP, 8 GB for OS, and the rest as /u01/opt/ for a future Oracle DB installation?

The GUI allows 'Solaris2' and 'Extended' ...

Thanks, Peter
