I put ext2 on /dev/sda1
and ext3 on /dev/sda3

after I fdisk and changed the partition table.

livecd tlinux5 # cat /etc/mtab 
/dev/ROOT / xfs rw,noatime 0 0
/newroot/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro 0 0
/dev/loop/0 /mnt/livecd squashfs ro 0 0
none /proc proc rw 0 0
none /sys sysfs rw 0 0
none /dev ramfs rw 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
tmpfs /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware tmpfs rw 0 0
none /proc/bus/usb usbfs rw 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo ext2 rw 0 0
/dev/sda3 /mnt/gentoo/boot ext3 rw 0 0


>From what I remember a low level format only needs to be done on a
scsi drive once. This drive was formatted a long time ago.
