To install oracle I did a "mkdir" from the root directory and created /u01, /u02, one for the software, one for the database. So far as I can tell, those u0x directories are on a 4.3 gig slice since I created them under the root directory. But the oracle universal installer (at the component installation window) shows only 171 Meg showing for the '/' volume when "df -k" says different.
I've installed Solaris 8 IA on a PII350 w/ 6Gb HD; I have a 6 Gig HD, all for solaris. When installing Solaris I created three slices:
/ with 5.2 Gig (I've used ~1 gig)
/export/home with .5 Gig
swap with .44 Gig
This is what "df -k" shows me from my "oracle" user account, if it helps. thanks!!
