Hello everyone,

I have tried to install a new 120 gb hd on my rh 7.1 machine.Following are 
the steps I have taken,

1)I have physically attached the hd
2)rebooted the system and the kernel recognised the hd as hdd
3)partitioned the disk using fdisk.(I made a primary partition of 100 gb and 
left the rest as free space).
4)created the file system using

               mkfs /dev/hdd
         for this I got a final message saying as,
    illegal triply indirect block found while setting bad block inode.
5)then i created a directory and tried to mount the partition using,
       mount -t ext2 /dev/hdd /mnt/drive3
      result:
         mount:wrong fs type bad partition,
                bad superblock on /dev/hdd or
                too many mounted file systems


After this I rebooted and the dmesg command shows the hdd space around 33000 
MB (originally it was showing 120000 which is the correct value).

I have tried to delete and add partitons again but its the same result.

Any help on this is appreciated.Or please suggest me a good book to read for 
this.

I may have not given the entire info of my problem and Iam willing to give 
should you guys need to solve this problem.
