Thanks for the much needed info. Next question:
If I install Solaris first, then Suse, Linux fdisk complains that the
partitions don't end on cylinder boundaries.
If I install Suse first, Solaris won't leave the existing partitions as
is, it wants to change them just a slight bit, causing the same problem.
