Thanks guys, I managed to reinstall the system in custom mode and partitioned the harddisk according to my needs.

So how do I re-allocate disk space? I had reinstalled several times, both custom and default installation, but never once was I prompted to allocate disk space. I was only prompted to allocate for swap space. I really need to take out the space from /export/home and transfer it to my root...

Hi Annihilannic, Thanks again for helping. The problem is that when I tried to install Solaris, there wasn't any option for me to select and configure partitions. How do I enable that?

Hi, I have just installed Apache 1.3.27 on a Solaris 8 machine. What do I do next? I heard that you need to edit the httpd.conf file, so what should I add/edit? What else do I need to do in order to see something on the internet. Thanks in advance!

Thanks Blaine, I managed to do it using the following commands: #> cd /tmp (or where you put the program file) #> gunzip program-1.00-local.gz #> mkdir /tmp/spool (this can be any directory in a place with a lot of disk space) #> pkgadd -s /tmp/spool -d program-1.00-local #> cd /tmp/spool #>...
