This provides me the gig drive to back up stuff, save rpms, etc. Works great here. I just formatted the file system as normal using the fdisk, mkfs (whatever?), and then changed my fstab to reflect the new place. -- Michael Perry [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------- -- To get out of this list, please send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/ and the archive at http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html
