That's the old version of uname. You need to upgrade to 2.0.12 of

One of our members (BLU) is a former Verizon employee. He once arranged an
Installfest at Verizon (formerly Bell Titanic formerly Nynex formerly New
England Telephone). He tells me that up here they are all mainframe
oriented, and a PC is nothing more than a 3270 terminal emulator.

Use caution when using GNU parted on systems which must interoperate with
non-Linux OSes, such as MS-Windows. GNU parted sometimes creates invalid
partition tables which work on Linux but other OSes choke on.

I am anticipating having to do something similar; I need to enlarge

That's very easy. Just use fdisk to change the file type of /dev/sda2. Use
the mkfs(8) command to format that partition. Once you have done that mount
/dev/sda2 on a convenient mount point, you can simply copy the contents of
/dev/sdb1 to /dev/sda1 (cp -R will work just fine). Then update
