During bootup the driver detects correctly that I have 0: <WDC 2120> 1:<MAXTOR 7120>. I'm now a bit anxious of making about making a filesystem on it. When I do a disklabel -r wd0 I get: # /dev/rwd0d: type: ESDI disk: ESDI/IDE label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 35 tracks/cylinder: 8 sectors/cylinder: 280 cylinders: 872 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 3 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg] a: 233240 0 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 0 - 832) b: 10000 233380 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 833*- 869*) c: 243880 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 870) I would have expected that I get a second drive named wd1 or the like. What confuses me is the fact that I see a partition c:. Is this partition the new disk or is it just the disk0 seen as a whole. Also, how would I have to proceed when I wanted to build a filesystem on that second disk? --Chris --Christoph Kukulies ----------------------------------------------------------------- kuku@acds.physik.rwth-aachen.de *** Error code 1 Stop.
