Hi !
I'm still a bit confused , maybe because I'm not familiar with devfs. I load the kernel-modules modprobe ide-disk modprobe ide-probe-mod modprobe ide-mod then hdparm, mkswap, swapon still fails because /dev/hda /dev/hda1 /dev/hda2 don#t exist. so I made a classic mknod /dev/hda b 3 0 then, when I use /dev/hda e.g. with hdparm -S 180 /dev/hda I see a message "Partition check: /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0: p1 p2 and 2 links were created: /dev/hda1 -> /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /dev/hda2 -> /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part2 why now ? why not earlier ? mkswap /dev/hda1 works now, but swapon /dev/hda1 still gives me an error: Don't know how to swap to this kind of file swapon: /dev/hda1: Invalid argument Are IDE swap-partitions disabled in the Kernel ? greetings & thanks, Martin Herweg _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
