Hi All, Need some quick advice on the following.
I recently added an Adaptec 29160N card and an IBM SCSI disc to my server box which previously had just an IDE disc. I cloned the disc using G4U http://www.feyrer.de/g4u/ and set SCSI as the first boot device in the BIOS (disabled 2nd,3rd,4th choices) So, now I can boot the kernel however mounts are still referencing the IDE disc so the system is still using the file system on that. I need to use the file system on the SCSI disc. Is this just a case of changing FSTAB ? Or, are there more edits to make ? Also, I have to fess up . . . . When I was about to install the new drive which was sitting on top of the system box I tilted the box to move the disc access LED lead onto the SCSI card. My nice new SCSI disc slid off and hit the MDF worktop - Agh ! I reckon the drop height was about 14" ~ do you think this would have exceed the G Force limit and invalidated my warranty / casued any damage ? The reason for asking is that I never really got up close and personal with a SCSI disc before and it does make some odd noises? Currently there is a frequent one every so often - its two freequencies that last about a second or two each. I have heard many an IDE controller go ticky and its nothing like that - sounds more like some kind of self test or something although its fairly frequent. Also, G4U didnt finish nicely as the SCSI is 36GB and the IDE a 40GB - however the system boots ok - guess I havent even used the FS on it yet though . . . Are there any tests I can do like a surface scan etc ? Any comments appreciated !
