You have to mount it first....    You can't access an unmounted disk.

I have not broken anything yet but I am about to, so I figured I would ask the 
question first.

I am adding a disk to my system.  The disk may have been previously formatted 
with NT.  I checked /etc/sysconfig/hwconf and the disk is there.

Do I first do a mount /dev/sdb3  /newdisk
Then run mkfs
Or do I mkfs and then mount it.

 

Thanks
