first, it would help to know if you're using IDE or SCSI disks.

it's very difficult to know much about your setup without you telling us
about it. did you creating during the installation time? does it have
space allocated?

second, why are you using x86 Slowaris? that's roughly like giving a
formula 1 car 85 octane fuel. it works, but it really kills performance.
you may want to look at Sun's new Linux distrobution instead, since it
should be compatable with most sun products. anything you could possibly
need to run as x86 solaris will run in Linux or BSD on x86 anyway.

i'd recommend #solaris on the EFNet IRC network, that might be a good
start.

not much to give, bud.
