I'm afraid I wasn't clear on this question.  I'm running Solaris on X86,
which explains why it is not SCSI but indeed IDE.  Also, nfs would
be great, but the Solaris drive is actually on the linux machine itself (I dual
boot linux and Solaris):

Single machine with 3 drives (hda, hdb, hdc):
/dev/hdb2:	Solaris X86
/dev/hdc1:	Linux

I don't think I can mount a "local" drive via type nfs, but that's an
interesting idea if it were possible.  Is such a thing possible (via localhost?)

Anyway, thanks for the kind suggestions, and if you have more please
forward them.  

Mark
