value out of range error on a disk with 40 GB FREE space
Hi,
I installed RHEL 6.0 OS on vmware with CREATE CUSTOM LAYOUT option. And I gave the space to different mount points as mentioned below:
fdisk -cul command shows the disk size as 64.4 GB. But when I try to create partion of 10 GB with fdisk -cu command, it says "value out of range". When I created the partition with maximum possible space, it created the partion of 999 KB.
My question is where the remaining 40 GB space gone. And how can I create the partition of 10 GB space ?
Please see the sequence of the commands below:

I'm getting ready to start a LU from Sol 9 to Solaris 10. I want to ensure that I have enough disk space for future upgrades. What I don't know is what free space Solaris requires.
If I have 10GB of free space in /opt, will Solaris 10 use that for a LU?
Or, do I need to allocate 10GB of space... (5 Replies)

However, now I am not sure how to check the free space itself.
