Unable to Install

At the part where I'm offered a chance to create Solaris partitions, the fdisk scren claims there is a "rounding error" of -172367mb. Which is basically the total amount of space used by the other partitions on my drive. I have 30gb of unallocated space available.

What causes this, and how do I fix it or workaround it?

Maybe: Solaris needs a primary partition (4 max), so don't try to install in a extended dos partitrion !If you didn't, you might use partition magic to see if your disk produces errors. (that said, I don't like PM with soraris)

No, I have one Primary Partition and one Extended. And the 30gb of unallocated space is after those two partitions. Meaning it is not within the extended.
