SLES9 = SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 (yes, it is compatible according
to Sun)

Machine: Sun Fire V40z Server w/LSI Logic SCSI Controller and dual
Seagate 146GB hard drives with Solaris 9 loaded on the primary drive.

PROBLEM: SUSE's YAST installer uses 'parted' and it's telling me that
'parted' can't remove or edit the existing Solaris 9 partitions (created
using Solaris' 'fdisk').

First, I deleted the RAID 1 array, which destroys the data on Drive 1.
Drive 0 is left intact. I had to do this to get Solaris 9 on Drive 0,
then I created the RAID array in the SCSI card's configuration and had
it sync the drives.

I'm thinking I should use Solaris 9's 'fdisk' to remove the current
existing partitions, then try to install SLES 9.

I'm just concerned that if SUSE still gives me an error on the drives,
then I will have 2 drives and no usable OS to help any further.

Suggestions?

Thanks!
