This is no error, if the disk is brand new its not formatted and so there is no partition table. Just do 'sudo fdisk /dev/hdd' or 'sudo cfdisk /dev/hdd' if you preffer. Create the partitions, and do 'sudo mkfs -t ext3 /dev/hdd1'. Note ext3 is the filesystem type and you may have other preferences, hdd1 is the partition you made with fdisk. b. -- bhaagensen ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bhaagensen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7418 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42989 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
