Where is the data found for populating the "available disk
selections" within the format utility?

I am thinking it comes from /dev and /devices after devfsadm
is ran.

Thanks

 
I'm thinking you're correct, although it won't list devices just because they're in /dev/rdsk if it can't detect a device there.

Annihilannic.
