[SunRescue] My darn Axil 245... It booted off CD-ROM!

[Ken Hansen]

Damn, 1x is *sloooooow* - I am starting a RH Linux 6.2 install on the Axil,
and it is taking *forever* - I just hope there is someway to label a drive
inside RH Linux 6.2, otherwise I'll have to fire up Solaris 2.5.1 CD and
open a shelltool to format the drive...

Nutz. Red Hat can't handle unlabeled HDs, here goes Solaris 2.5.1...
