Greetings; I have added a 1.0 TB Maxtor drive to the system, and copied, using mc, everything that was on the 400GB deathstar I had been using for my virtual tapes to this new drive.
The I edited /etc/fstab to reflect the LABEL name of the new disk in the line that mounts /amandatapes in that file. Then I did 'umount /amandatapes', checked with df to see that it was gone, and issued a 'mount /amandatapes', checked with df and the new drive was there as /amandatapes. And as the user amanda, 'amcheck Daily' is happy as a clam. I have not rebooted yet, don't see why I'd need to, but can anyone come up with a good reason why after checking tonight's run of amanda, that I can't repartition that 400GB deathstar (which is still breathing just fine) and install a ubuntu-9.04 preview just for grins? Reason? /me tired of being fedoras lab test rat. /me tired of not being able to play the videos my kids send me. Yes, I like to bleed, and play the canary bit in a coal mine play, but when I break something, I want it to be something _I_ did that broke it.
