You have to use fdisk to remove the NTFS partition and repartition to Linux Native. Then write the partition table and do a mkfs.ext2 on each partition created. Then edit your /etc/fstab and add the device entries for the partitions. Make sure the mount point directories exist before mounting the new partitions. Keep in mind that if you mount a partition to a directory that already contains data on another partition, you'll lose sight of the old data while the partition is mounted over top of it.
The man page or HOWTO for mdisk will probably help lots. On Mon, 4 Feb 2002, James Pifer wrote: > I have a second drive in a new install of RH7.2.
