Both Fedora 9 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 include the "vol_id" binary: - Package: udev - Path: /lib/udev/vol_id > blkid on fedora 9 is in /sbin. Likewise, both: - Package: e2fsprogs - Path: /sbin/blkid Also, we should not forget ... /dev/disk/ Such as ... /dev/disk/by-id/ /dev/disk/by-label/ /dev/disk/by-path/ /dev/disk/by-uuid/ It's the first thing I teach people when it comes to locating usable storage devices, storage slices (in various disk labels) and any, existing filesystems. ;) -- Bryan J Smith Professional, Technical Annoyance [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linkedin.com/in/bjsmith -------------------------------------------------------- I don't have a "favorite Linux distro."
