For a 2.2 system, you'll need to
1. Update your parmfile
2. Re-run silo
3. Reboot
4. dasdfmt the volume
5. mke2fs the volume
6. Mount the volume somewhere (say /mnt)
6. copy all the data from /opt to the new volume (various methods to do
this)
7. compare /opt to the new /mnt
8. rm -rf /opt/*
9. umount /mnt
10. mount the new volume on /opt
11. Update /etc/fstab with the new information

Subject: Add DASD


How does one add DASD after installation?  I have a spare DASD device with
512 MB I would like to mount on /opt.  Any  suggestion for Suse 2.2.16
running under VM?
