Suns disk are labeled with a standard label that are smaller than the actual 
disk (so that they can be
interchangeble in the future). I'd first try to wipe the Sun label from the 
disk and have format
write a new label on it... Ie:


dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/YOURDISK bs=512 count=1024
format
  <select disk>
  y (write a label)

Might work... (and might not help if Sun has modified the firmware to report 
less tracks/head/sectors than the retail version has).
