To be honest considering its sooo OLD you're best option is backup and reinstall. And preferably not Fedora of all things, its too dev happy.. CentOS 5.4 will probably serve you better if you have need to run a Linux OS on that device. -- Opportunity is most often missed by people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

Re: sysinstall on fedora?
thanks.. i'm not going to use it. i have a remote access and just need to mount a usb drive (through a scsi interface?!?!) attached to it so i can copy over some stuff. i was done with redhat when they went enterprise and started modifying the core code basically i just need some command lines like mkfs and such which i couldn't find. i'll check this part command see what it's doing... thanks again...

In that case you should check fdisk for partitions mkfs for filesystem. You'd be most probably looking for mkfs.ext3 or mkfs.vfat ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
