I can't seem to get the manual fdisk partition thing down.  Got a new HP
DL360 with a direct attached HP MSA 30.  The DL360 has a RAID card that
limits the file size to 2TB.  The MSA 30 has 14 300GB scsi drives.  I have
configured the RAID controller to have 2 logical drives both with 1.5TB
logical drives.  Installed RHEL and it will not let me create the
partitions the size I want at install time.  This is what I need, I have
the OS on the RAID1 logical drive on the DL360.  The problem comes when I
try to fdisk the other direct attached storage.  First, how do I know what
to fdisk?  I know I need to start with /dev/cciss/?? but there are 2052
possibilites after that. I would assume after I find what device I want to
fdisk, i would run fdisk /dev/cciss/$drive, then n for the new partition. 
after that I would assume to mkfs.ext3 and after that create a lable and
add it to fstab.  Any help would be appreciated, email or web link.
Regards,
Chris
