Need help Installing UNIX
I have a dual boot - XP and Solaris 10 on my Intel Box. Since quite sometime now, I have been trying to get a driver for the Network card on my box so that I can connect to the Web through Solaris; but Solaris does not have a generic driver for my Gigabit Ethernet 10.100.1000 T-base card. As a result I am unable to go on the Web from Solaris.

I therefore need to Delete the Solaris partition and install Linux there.

How can I go about deleting the Solaris software and install Linux in the same partition.

Can someone please help?

Thanks

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       install-solaris(1M) is now the preferred command for starting and restarting the Solaris Installation program. It should be used instead of
