That's the problem: udev assume sda1, sda2, etc. Put a partition table record on it with fdisk... (save the content of /dev/sda before, and restore it after fdisk operation and creating the new filesystem on /dev/sda1, e.g.) Or hack the udev rules to try sda when no sda1, etc. exists.. -- Zsolt ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
