/proc/filesystems lists ext3 I think the error is something different. I can mount my USB key that I formatted ext2, but when I try /dev/hda1 instead of /dev/sda1, it says Unknown error 6, which is "no such device or address". When I do a ls -l /dev/ I get brw-rw---- 1 0 0 3, 1 Oct 13 13:08 /dev/hda1 brw-rw---- 1 0 0 8, 1 Oct 13 13:08 /dev/sda1 The only differences are the h vs. s and the major number Thanks for your help, Myles -- linuxbios mailing list linuxbios@linuxbios.org http://www.openbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
