Follow the below steps . Note that its only read-only support for NTFS / Ext2 / Ext3 .
* Download packages
FSWpart
FSWfsmisc
Note these are packages for x86 Solaris .
* unzip the packages and install it
root~#gzcat FSWpart.tar.gz | tar xvf –
root~#gzcat FSWfsmisc.tar.gz | tar xvf –
root~#pkgadd -d . FSWpart
root~#pkgadd -d . FSWfsmisc
* Now run the prtpart tool
root~#/usr/sbin/prtpart
It would result in following output
root~#/usr/sbin/prtpart

Now note the disk id. In the above example its “/dev/rdsk/c1d0p0”
Now run
root~#/usr/sbin/prtpart /dev/rdsk/c1d0p0 -ldevs
Fdisk information for device /dev/rdsk/c1d0p0
** NOTE **
/dev/dsk/c1d0p0 – Physical device referring to entire physical disk
/dev/dsk/c1d0p1 – p4 – Physical devices referring to the 4 primary partitions
/dev/dsk/c1d0p5 … – Virtual devices referring to logical partitions
Virtual device names can be used to access EXT2 and NTFS on logical partitions
/dev/dsk/c1d0p1 Diagnostic
/dev/dsk/c1d0p2 WIN95 FAT32(LBA)
/dev/dsk/c1d0p3 Solaris x86
/dev/dsk/c1d0p4 DOS Extended
/dev/dsk/c1d0p5 Linux native
/dev/dsk/c1d0p6 Linux swap
/dev/dsk/c1d0p7 WIN95 FAT32(Upto 2047GB)
The above command scan you hard-disk and displays all available filesystems. Note the required filesystems to be mounted.
To mount NTFS partition use
root~#mount -F ntfs /dev/dsk/c1d0p<number> /mnt/windows
To mount FAT 16 / FAT 32 partition use
root~#mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c1d0p<number> /mnt/windows
if the above command fails you can try the below option
root~#prtpart /dev/dsk/c1d0p0 -fat
the above command should list the available PCFS / FAT partitions in colon notation, then use the same for mounting (eg)
root~#mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c1d0p0:d /mnt/windows
To mount Ext2 / Ext3 partitions use
root~#mount -F ext2fs /dev/dsk/c1d0p<number> /mnt/linux
To unmount a partition use “umount <directory>”
root~#umount /mnt/linux

Thanks a lot! There has been a lot of changes in the new version of Solaris and I was a little bit lost trying to mount my Mandriva partitions.
You’d been of great help to me. Thanks again, please continue the great work.
