can you list your partition table, format command -> partition -> print ?

#1) if the command exists: prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/s0t5d0s2 (s0t5d0s2 as an example)

dd if=/dev/zero of=my-sun3-disk.img bs=1 count=1 seek=201326592

(This is something like 200MBi which was OK for NetBSD anyway)

I only used 2 partitions /dev/rsd0a for root (4.2BSD) & /dev/rsd0b for swap. rsd0c just means the whole disk.

The key thing seemed to be c=NUM, t=0, s=0 for the alignment -- I think the partitions have to be on whole cylinder numbers only.

Hopefully SunOS 3 isn't too different!

I also set 16MBi memory in the config and EEPROM to resemble the real machine more (but I suspect this isn't needed)

Good luck!
