Well here's a fine kettle of fish, Ollie.
I have installed Suse 7.2 Pro over the weekend and have had to reshuffle
harddrives a couple of times to accomodate both Windows and the appealing but
largish Suse install... this is (still) a dual boot system.
Disk 3 was reformatted to EXT2 and not all are being picked up by the system
(I don't think 2 & 3 are). I can edit the fstab file, but how do I know which
drive is actually now which device, when the devices listed are not updating,
not all of them are being listed and the fstab listing no longer matches the
current reality?
Here are the facts:
System Details:
- ABit BP6 Mainboard
- Dual Celeron CPUs
- 512 MB SDRAM
- Creative Nvidia TNT2 Ultra graphics card
- Soundblaster Live Value sound card
- Disk 1, Master on primary EIDE, 9Gb Fat32 Primary for Windows, 10Gb for
Linux with default Suse install partions (boot, swap & /)
- CDROM, Acer 50x ATAPI = slave on primary EIDE
- Disk 2, Master on secondary EIDE, 13.2Gb EXT2 for Linux storage
- Disk 3, Slave on secondary EIDE, 4Gb fat32 Primary for Windows storage
- Disk 4, Master on first ATA66 UDMA channel, 13Gb fat32 split into
approximately two logical 6Gb drives/partitions.
Following is result of df:
burns@burns:~ > df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda7 10G 2.9G 7.0G 29% /
/dev/hda5 23M 2.5M 19M 12% /boot
shmfs 942M 0 941M 0% /dev/shm
Following is fstab file:
root@burns:/ > cat etc/fstab
/dev/hda7 / ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/hda5 /boot ext2 defaults 1 2
/dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user,sync 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda1 /windows/C vfat noauto,user 0 0
/dev/hdd1 /windows/D vfat noauto,user 0 0
/dev/hdf1 /windows/E vfat noauto,user 0 0
/dev/hdf5 /windows/F vfat noauto,user 0 0
/dev/hda6 swap swap pri=42 0 0
I have another question, but I'll post it as a separate thread.
