Ultra 5 with 20 gig IDE Disk

I've just received a refurbished Ultra 5 with a Seagate Barracuda 20GB
IDE disk in it. Solaris 6 and 8 both seem to think there's an 8GB
disk label on the disk during the install process. Booting from CD
in single user mode, and running format, I get "Cannot format this drive.
Please use your Manufacturer supplied formatting util.".

Trouble is, we don't have a manufacturer supplied formatting utility.

Ideas?

Cheers,
Gavin.
