Can I put my own tags in a partition table

I have X4500 running Solaris 10. I have formatted a disk and created partition table as given below.

Specify disk (enter its number): 0
selecting c0t0d0
[disk formatted]
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 is part of active ZFS pool zpool1. Please see zpool(1M).


FORMAT MENU:

type - select (define) a disk type
partition - select (define) a partition table
current - describe the current disk
format - format and analyze the disk
fdisk - run the fdisk program
repair - repair a defective sector
label - write label to the disk
analyze - surface analysis
defect - defect list management
backup - search for backup labels
verify - read and display labels
inquiry - show vendor, product and revision
volname - set 8-character volume name
!<cmd> - execute <cmd>, then return
quit
format> partition


PARTITION MENU:
0 - change `0' partition
1 - change `1' partition
2 - change `2' partition
3 - change `3' partition
4 - change `4' partition
5 - change `5' partition
6 - change `6' partition
select - select a predefined table
modify - modify a predefined partition table

print - display the current table
label - write partition map and label to the disk
!<cmd> - execute <cmd>, then return
quit
partition> print
Current partition table (original):
Total disk sectors available: 1953508749 + 16384 (reserved sectors)

Part Tag Flag First Sector Size Last Sector
0 usr wm 34 4.00GB 8388641
1 usr wm 8388642 2.00GB 12582945
2 usr wm 12582946 200.00GB 432013345
3 usr wm 432013346 175.00GB 799014945
4 usr wm 1166180386 375.43GB 1953508748
5 usr wm 799014946 175.00GB 1166016545
6 usr wm 1166016546 80.00MB 1166180385
8 reserved wm 1953508749 8.00MB 1953525132

partition>

I am unable to specify my own tag name. How can I change the tag name to one of my interest.

I need to create 3 partitions as told below

partitions:

/earth
/mars
/work

/earth and /work should be roughly equal in size, /mars should be twice the size of the others, if that is possible. If not 3 partitions of equal size will do.

Please, help me .

Thank you.
