Solaris 9 Volume Manager...

I have a Sun Ultra 1 with two 2.1GB disks running Sol 9. To maximize
storage space, I'm trying some wacky stuff that I don't think will work
but I'm going to ask anway.
 
/dev/dsk/c0t3d0s0 is /.
I have created several soft-partitions on c0t0d0. What I want to do is
concat c0t3d0s0 with d1 d2 and d3. Is this possible for the root device
to do something like this? According to 'metaroot' man page, the only
metadevice that supports the root file system are a stripe with only a
single disk or a mirror on a single-disk stripe. Therefore, I'm thinking
what I'm trying will not work. I know this isn't a safe setup but I'm
experimenting on a test box and need the space rather than the
reliability.
 
Thanks for any info.
