Short procedure how to create Coherent virtual machine with 16GB disc space.

We assume, that You have already created the Coherent virtual machine and
have tested , that it boots OK.

Add new virtual hard disc, attaching it to primary 1 device (slave) and set 
the size of this disc to 16 GB.
Start the virtual machine using cohtesta1w kernel.
During boot You will notice that two disc are detected at0 and at1.
After login use cfdisk to create four 4GB paritions on new at1 disc.

	cfdisk /dev/at1x


After partitions were created restart the system and create file
system on new partitions.

	mkfs /dev/at1a 8000000

etc.

It is important that the number of sectors used by mkfs is lower than the
number of sectors created with cfdisk. You can safely cut 1 MB at the end
of the partition. Otherwise fsck wil fail.
So far so good.

HTH
