formatting hd for Solaris

Ok heres the situation
I bought Solaris 8 from Sun and I want to install in on my PC (bought the intel version)
do I have to format the hd (6 gig) before I install and is there a bootdisk around that could help me do that.
I formatted it with a win98 bootdisk and I ran into problems while installing Solaris
Please, any info would be much appreciated
