You know that some (all) PROM-Versions of the SS20 have a 1GB limit to boot
from? AFAIK, it is suggested to have to /boot partition as sda1, SILO even
has its config file there for that reason
(symlink /etc/silo.conf->/boot/silo.conf exists).
On my SS20, Partitions are:
sda1 /boot
sda2 swap
sda3 disk
sda4 /
....
Installers do not tend to tell you about such things (neither Solaris8+ not
Debian), AFAIK this was different with Woody.
