If you have no much experience and want to partition external HD you are good advised to use YaST -- System -- Partitioner. It is more verbose than command line tools and although it is in the moment designed for users that are familiar with Linux terminology, like /dev/sda, /dev/sda1, /dev/sda5 etc, it will help you to create partitions without knowing much more details. BTW, if you want to learn how to use command line tools, that can give you more of direct control you may look in the article: http://en.opensuse.org/Linux_Documentation and http://en.opensuse.org/Manual_Pages I started idea to describe various sources of information traditional to Linux that I found extremely useful when I was new user, but no one picked up since than :-( -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
