[SunHELP] Am I screwed??

It's not the remoteness that has you screwed, it's the fact that your disk is
partitioned that the only usable slice is slice 7.  All your cylinders are used
up through cyl 10912.  To use slice 4 you will need to delete slice 5 and 6 and
re-partition the last 4 slices.  Once you do this all data on slices 5 and 6
will be lost and you will need to reload the system.  Looks like either way you
are going on a trip.
