OK, I'm sure I'm doing something dumb, but I've pounded my head against the wall long enough to seek some help.
I haven't really touched Suse in a couple of years, so I'm pretty rusty and my notes aren't as good as they seemed to be when I wrote them (go figure). Suddenly, someone needs a disk added to their Suse virtual machine. I created the minidisk, and CMS formatted it - so far no problem. I went through Yast-hardware to activate the disk and then used the Software partitioner to format it with ext3 and mount it at /data1. So far, so good. The disk shows up, everything seems happy. Then, I reboot the system to make sure everything is OK and the fsck fails on the new disk. I get the following messages: /sbin/fsck.ext3 (1) -- /data1Ù fsck.ext3 -a /dev/dasdd1 "" fsck.ext3: No such device or address while trying to open /dev/dasdd1""" Possibly non-existent or swap device?"" fsck.ext3 /dev/dasdd1 failed (status 0x8). Run manually!"" Arrrgggg..... I've tried everything I can think of and nothing helps. If I take the disk out of fstab and then mount it manually, no problem. What the heck am I missing? This is SLES 9, by the way.
