Hi, >I just put a 2nd SCSI Disk into my Indy Workstation. Partitioning it was >a bit tricky. Setting up a partition as swapspace went well. But I am >not able to use the normal partition.

Have you checked if the parity setting of the new disk is the same as the setting for the existing disk? >The harddisk worked fine in my SparcStation. BTW: What about the >external SCSI connector on the Indy? Is it useable with linux? It is, but as I installed it only without parity checking. As I hooked up a SCSI CDROM with parity checking set to on, the whole install was corrupted. Everything was fine once I disabled parity checking. HTH, Uli -- Dipl. Inf.
