Need to run different Solaris versions on one machine? This tech tip (from sun.com) shows how to partition disk slices and install multiple Solaris versions.
William Xue, October 2007
Most of the time, Solaris developers and testers need to install and work on different versions of the Solaris OS, but not everyone has enough machines to install each version of the Solaris OS on a separate machine. However, you can install multiple Solaris versions on the same hard disk to save resources.
Here, I show you how to install multiple versions of the Solaris OS on the same disk. In my example, I install three Solaris versions: Solaris 9, Solaris 10, and Solaris Nevada (or Solaris Developer Express Edition/SXDE).
Actually, using the same method I present in this article, you can install the same Solaris version but different builds, for example, Nevada Builds 55, 66, and 73, or you can even install the same version of Solaris tree copies on the same disk.

President Jonathan Schwartz says company has been investigating “how to deliver our products and technologies for free
Stanford, Calif. -- Sun Microsystems president and COO Jonathan Schwartz on Thursday cited the company's plans to eventually offer all of its software for free as a way to build communities around its technologies.
"The net upside of that is we get more people engaged in our community," Schwartz said of Sun's plans while speaking at the AlwaysOn conference here.
Sun currently offers its Solaris operating system components freely via open source. Technologies such as Java also are downloadable at no charge.
"We've been trying to faithfully explore how to deliver our products and technologies for free," Schwartz said. He made no specific statement about offering Sun hardware for free, however. Sun can leverage its software technologies to boost hardware sales.
