Hi,

I think I did create a solaris partition. Does the output from
fdisk, cfdisk, and sfdisk below give a clear indication of whether I 
did or not? 
I'll take a look at the linux+freebsd-howto. Thanks for telling me
about it.

[root@localhost /root]# fdisk /dev/sdb
 
Command (m for help): p
 
Disk /dev/sdb: 132 heads, 62 sectors, 1017 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 8184 * 512 bytes

/dev/sdb1   *         1      1018   4164120   82  Linux swap
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary:
     phys=(1017, 103, 16) should be (1017, 131, 62)

[root@localhost /root]# sfdisk /dev/sdb

Disk /dev/sdb: 1017 cylinders, 132 heads, 62 sectors/track
Old situation:
Warning: The first partition looks like it was made
  for C/H/S=*/104/16 (instead of 1017/132/62).
For this listing I'll assume that geometry.
Units = cylinders of 851968 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from
0

 
   Device Boot Start     End   #cyls   #blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdb1   *      0+   5005-   5005-  4164120   82  Linux swap
                start: (c,h,s) expected (0,80,11) found (0,20,51)
                end: (c,h,s) expected (1023,103,16) found (1017,103,16)
/dev/sdb2          0       -       0         0    0  Empty
/dev/sdb3          0       -       0         0    0  Empty
/dev/sdb4          0       -       0         0    0  Empty
Input in the following format; absent fields get a default value.
<start> <size> <type [E,S,L,X,hex]> <bootable [-,*]> <c,h,s> <c,h,s>
Usually you only need to specify <start> and <size> (and perhaps 
<type>).

----------------------------------------------------------

[root@localhost /root]# mount -t ufs -o ufstype=sunx86 /dev/sdb
/solaris
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb,
       or too many mounted file systems
