Solaris parted
Posted: Apr 15, 2007 5:27 AM

Greetings,

The basic functionality of GNU Parted (libparted) has been implemented to work
on OpenSolaris. The code is currently at a very beta stage although the basic functionality of editing fdisk partitions works on Solaris. The following commands of parted are fully functional:
print, mkpart, mkpartfs, rm, mkfs, resize and toggle are fully functional as of now.

The Parted code can be grabbed from: http://code.google.com/p/solaris-parted

The following are known limitations that we are currently working on:
* The code has only been tested on IDE disks. Support for SCSI is in the pipeline.
* Solaris partitions are still displayed by parted as "unknown". We need to
  add the VTOC identification support to parted.
* The code needs quite some cleanup
* Device probing is still incomplete.

Regards,

Nikhil Vyakaranam,
Sujay Patil,

I guess it will be a straight compile of Gtkmm and then Gparted. However
we'd need to use the SUN Studio Compiler which might cause a few issues
with Gparted as it is much stricter than gcc.

No idea why they chose to write Gparted in C++ Ugh!

Moinak.

It looks like Gtkmm is fairly easy to build on Nevada (e.g. no patches
required), except for a long dependency chain:

I have a little patch for NTFSProgs (http://www.linux-ntfs.org/) to
make it
work on Solaris and is included in BeleniX. This gives us the ability to
resize/move NTFS partitions. Gparted uses NTFSProgs. You can get the
Solaris package from:


http://www.genunix.org/distributions/belenix_site/binfiles/FSWfsmisc.tar.gz

Gparted, libparted and NTFSprogs should provide a complete partitioning
solution on OpenSolaris.

Regards,
Moinak.

Is adding of ufs support part of the scope. Providing support to the native solaris filesystem would be an important addition to the feature set.

Hi
We are working on providing ufs support to solaris-parted .
There are a few issues that have to be sorted out.
It will come up soon.

Nikhil

CONGRATS!!! to all of you!

Pretty cool thing coming out.
Quick query, does it allow to mark a given primary partition as active?

thanks

It  has a option called toggle which toggles state of a  FLAG on partition which includes    boot, root, lba........

make install in libparted and parted worked nevetheless. Anyway I
downloaded the new file file too. The configure/make error in doc has
disappeared and the code works on all SX builds and IDE disks I have
tested so far.

Hi Anil,
Make sure gcc in PATH. add /usr/sfw/bin to $PATH in .bashrc.

Also, what is the command to uninstall the stuff that was copied during this partial install?

Include /usr/ccs/bin in your path. Also looking at the warnings
you need to use /usr/sfw/bin/gmake (GNU make) instead of make.

Great work guys...Congrats !

Greetings,

The basic functionality of GNU Parted (libparted) has been implemented to work
on OpenSolaris.
 

The code is currently at a very beta stage although the basic functionality of editing fdisk partitions works on Solaris. The following commands of parted are fully functional:
print, mkpart, mkpartfs, rm, mkfs, resize and toggle are fully functional as of now.

The Parted code can be grabbed from: http://code.google.com/p/solaris-parted

The following are known limitations that we are currently working on:
* The code has only been tested on IDE disks. Support for SCSI is in the pipeline.
* Solaris partitions are still displayed by parted as "unknown". We need to
  add the VTOC identification support to parted.
* The code needs quite some cleanup
* Device probing is still incomplete.

Nikhil Vyakaranam,

Great Work !

I compiled and ran it successfully on my solaris box - Works like a
charm. When do we get to see the gparted GUI now ?

Cheers,

Congratulations Solaris Parted Team - Nikhil, Sujay, Srivatsa, Nitin!

I am very happy to see BOSUG members contribute code to OpenSolaris.
Good job guys! Another feather in the cap for BOSUG. Get us the GUI
fast. :-)
