Last night, I've added a 2nd IDE HD to a RH73;

I've fdisked it as primary type 83, then, mounted as /mnt/hd2
then, started copying files to it

subsequently, I noticed that I was supposed to 'mkfs' after partitioning;
so, I've moved all the already copied files, and, 'mkfs' the new hard
drive, then, moved the files back to it

curious now, the disk appeared to work fine after 'fdisk' and before mkfs...
what gives ?
