I think the problem is not in my command to SRM console, its in the
fdisk
this is my alpha disk:

Filesystem         1024-blocks  Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/sda2             124423   42657    75340     36%   /
/dev/sda3             256590   50952   192385     21%   /home
/dev/sda4            1484386  329013  1078663     23%   /usr
/dev/sdb1            4044375    4646  3830484      0%   /cache0
/dev/sdc1            4044375    4654  3830476      0%   /cache1
/dev/sdd1            4044375    4637  3830493      0%   /cache2
/dev/sde1            4044375    4636  3830494      0%   /cache3

I built /dev/sda partiotion using bsd disklevel and leave the others
with normal partition.
Now I'm using kernel 2.0.36 with 3000 filedescriptor. And ready to
install my squid.
