Installing solaris 8 and not erasing racine disk

I have one hardisk of 45G partitionned into 20G and 25G.
Windows98 lives on the first partition. My plan was
to intall Solaris on the second partition. But when I launch
the installation, it says it wants to run fdisk on the c0d0
device, and that it will erase all its data.
What's the good way to do it for me? For example, if
you install linux, it let you choose onwhich partition
you want to install. Does Solaris impose to be installed
on the first partition? Any clue are welcome.

Just use the first cd of Solaris software instead the install cd.

    Had the same problem, finally realized that the FileVault Encryption was struck at 19%. Speed back up to normal after I disabled FileVault using terminal command - sudo fdesetup diable
    To check whether the FileVault is the culprit, go to System Preferences --> Security & Privacy --> FileVault to see if encryption is in progress.. For me the blue bar was less than a quarter with status 'estimating time remaining'..
    Then open Terminal and type in: sudo fdesetup disable
    It will then ask for the admin password (to be it asked twice), then it was disabled... Back to normal life again..
    Here is my terminal log for reference:

    I want to keep the backups on it and not erase and start over.

    It sounds like something went wrong with the drive.  Did you drop it?  How long has it been sitting around unused?

  • HT204347 Unable to Re-install mountain Lion after erasing with disk utility! help

    I bought my new Macbook pro retina disply 13 inch last friday. played with it some time and try to restore using a time machine back up of my old Mac Air. It worked well but I didn't like it so I restarted and pressed Command + R to bring the restore utility and from there I used the Disk utility to erase my Disk and then after connecting to net I clicked reinstall Lion. First my machine was verified by Apple, then I entered my apple ID, then the mountain lion licence agreement came and i clicked agree and it started installing. Immediatley below the installation bar it showed 50 hrs remaining to finish installation. it was odd because I used to finish it within 2 hrs. Moreover the time appeared to increase from 50 to 51 and more. I waited all day without any use. it looked as if the disk has some write protection, the software is trying to install but unable to write.
    What can i do now? I am now without a  OS in my mac.

    A new Mac comes with 90 days of free tech support from AppleCare from the date of purchase.

  • How to erase notes from ipod and not erasing them on iphone ?

    I had an iPod and I transferred all my notes to my iPhone with iCloud, I am trying to erase notes from iPod and I want to keep them all in iPhone, but as I erase one note from iPod it does the same with iPhone, I don't want to deactivate iCloud from iPod because I gave it to my brother. So I just need someone to tell me how to not erase my notes on iPhone and erase them all on iPod.

    If you are synching the two via iCloud you can't. If you want separate content on the two devices in note, take one of them off icloud. (Or put another way, if you don't wnat the content between the two synched, why are you synching them?)

  • Can I install win2K and solaris8 in one disk?

    I have already installed windows2000 in my laptop. I also want to install Solaris8 on it. The installation loader finds my hard disk device and asks if I want to create a new fdisk partition in c0d0. If I answer "yes", will the installation prompt me to create a partition for solaris, or take up the whole disk? How can I install both w2K and solaris8 in a pc? Thank you!

    You will have to resize your partition if you would like to do this. That will free up some space. If you don't have the space you will have to upgrade to a larger hd. I've put Linux, Win2k, and Solaris on the same machine before. Win and Sol on the first disk.

  • Changing the size and/or erasing a disk partition

    I have a 2010 MacBook Pro with two disk partitions. The original is 100G and runs Mavericks, and the other is 200G and runs Snow Leopard.  I can change the size of the partition with Snow Leopard that I created but not the original.  In the end I need the partition running snow leopard to be 100G and the original with Mavericks to be 200G.  Essentially swap the size.  Do I need to erase the partition I created to change the size of the original.  If so, what is the best way to do this?

    This is Apple's guidance on disk partitioning.

  • BSD Subsystems not present on install discs and not installed

    Today I was wanting to enable my Mac to work as a wireless access point for my internet connection. When I tried to I was unable to do so, with a note saying that the BSD subsystems weren't installed. I looked around a bit online and following the advice I found, tried to install it from my Snow Leopard install DVD. What I found, however, was that it simply wasn't there. At all. Anywhere. I decided to check both of my Leopard install DVD's as well. Nothing. I even went as far as to try my Tiger disks.
    This is confusing to me as I have previously used my Mac as a wireless access point and at that point in time I clearly had the BSD subsystems, yet now (since then I've had to reinstall the operating system twice and had the harddrive replaced) I do not have it, nor is it on any of the disks that by all other accounts it should be on. I've looked in the install packages, run searches and found nothing at all.
    So basically, how can I install BSD if it's not where it's meant to be?

    Thank you so so much. I unchecked Safari in my icloud and it seems we now have separate bookmarks again. (She deleted dozens of my bookmarks earlier thinking she was only deleting from her own Mac. I've managed to restore many of them but not organised as they were with my own notes on them! It'll take many weeks to sort out.) I also tried unchecking Calendars in icloud as our calendars have merged, but it tells me my calendar will be deleted from my Mac.
    Still wondering if I should just install her own Mountain Lion on her Macbook with her own Apple ID (what I should have done in the first place probably) or will this cause issues with installing one mountain lion over another do you think?

  • How could I allow selected Domain users or Computers to install programs and not be asked for Admin credentials.

     We have a handfull of Laptops in the company. They are all joined to our
    Domain. The default domain policy keeps these non-adminstrators from installing
    software without prodiving the administrator credentials for the domain. We have a
    few users that we would let install programs but would prefer not to make administrators.
    I have been all over the place searching for solutions. Is there an actual field to allow this
    in Group Policy? All the suggestions I have seen have dead-ended on me....Any thoughts.
    Server is Windows 2003R2 and clients are all WIndows 7 Pro. Again, at this point I would like
    to be able to allow specified computers this right.

    Based on what I have found Power Users group has no added user rights in Windows 7:
    From http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771990.aspx:
    By default, members of this group have no more user rights or permissions than a standard user account. The Power Users group in previous versions of Windows was designed to give users specific administrator rights and permissions to perform common system
    tasks. In this version of Windows, standard user accounts inherently have the ability to perform most common configuration tasks, such as changing time zones. For legacy applications that require the same Power User rights and permissions that were present
    in previous versions of Windows, administrators can apply a security template that enables the Power Users group to assume the same rights and permissions that were present in previous versions of Windows.
    So despite the caution it does not  seem like an option. As for Publishing Software, if the user needs to install something "on the fly" that will not work. I guess i could just add to the administrator group as needed in order to install programs then
    remove. Now the user is remote operationg on cached credentials. Would then not need to come to the domain and log in locally in order to update their security tokens.

  • How to re-install tasks and notes

    I had to re-install my blackberry's operating system when it crashed the other day and since the installation I have not been able to find either the tasks or the notes applications. Is there any way to download just these applications without re-installing the whole operating system again?

    Go through the same procedure you used to load the OS.  You can check the boxes for Tasks and memo pad.  It will only install the missing apps, not the whole OS.

  • How do I set iTunes to sync just podcasts and not erase music

    How do I set up iTune to sync just my podcast and videos without syncing my music which I have found erases all the MP3s that I have saved?
    Thanks

    I am guessing you are set for manaul syncing, not auto-sync.
    Make a playlist with the podcasts/videos you want, select the whole thing, and drag it into the iPod area after you connect it. This is one of the drawbacks of using manual sync - you have to do it manually.

  • How do you Sync your music and not erase your movies?

    I purchased my first movie from Itunes via my laptop. I synced it to my Ipod Touch along with syncing my music, and everything was fine.
    Today I wanted to sync just my music (different playlist), and I got a message that my movies would be removed from my IPT (or something to that effect). The movie took quite long to sync to the IPT, and I was in a rush, so I didn't do anything.
    How can I sync my music without having to re-sync the movie?

    go to your iphone un itunes > music and put all the music or select the song and itunes will put the songs that are not on the iphone, if it's an iphone which has been synchornized with another itunes it will ask you to erase all the songs and sync the songs you have
