Just to confirm: I've got this on a laptop:
# fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 20.0 GB, 20003880960 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 2432 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 758 6088603+ b W95 FAT32 /dev/hda2 2402 2432 249007+ 82 Linux swap /dev/hda3 2280 2401 979965 83 Linux /dev/hda4 759 2279 12217432+ 83 Linux I have no need for the FAT32 partiton, so is the procedure as simple as: 1) use cfdisk to change the type to 83 Linux and write the partition table 2) format: mkfs.xfs /dev/hda1 3) update /etc/fstab to mount it some place handy. Missing anything obvious? Any need to re-run lilo? -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
