You probably forgot to use "fdisk" to change the partition type byte on that partition. Do "fdisk /dev/hdb", and there do 'l' and then 't', changing the partition type of that partition to 83 (Linux). Also, it is recommended to add a line for /dev/hdb1 in /etc/fstab, with something like /dev/hda1 /mnt/tmp ext3 defaults 1 5 -- Nadav Har'El | Tuesday, Mar 11 2003, 7 Adar II 5763 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |Boat: A hole in the water surrounded by http://nadav.harel.org.il |wood into which one pours money. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
