<pre wrap="">I forgot that I installed the new version of webmin on hdb1. I dont want to reinstall webmin. How can I create the extents of the hdd? Can I create an extended partition (ext3) using the rest of the hdd without losing my webmin? Webmin gives me the option to do it. I just dont want to mess things up.. Thanks!

Subject: Re: HDD Space
Maybe the HD is partitioned and you only formatted the first partition
which was only about 100MB in size.

<pre wrap="">I added a new hdd to my Redhat Oracle test box running 9.0. Its just an
extra 4.5gb hdd for space. I mounted the drive no problem. When I do a df
-h and view the size of the drive it says
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda2 8.6G 7.6G 584M 93% /
/dev/hda1 99M 9.0M 85M 10% /boot
none 153M 0 153M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/hdb1 99M 38M 57M 40% /mnt/drive2
I did a fdisk -l /dev/hdb1 and get:
Disk /dev/hdb1: 106 MB, 106896384 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 12 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk /dev/hdb1 doesn't contain a valid partition table
I cant figure out why the hdd space is so low and it says Disk /dev/hdb1
doesn't contain a valid partition table Do I need to reformat the hdd
again? My /etc/fstab file is:
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hda3 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hdb1 /mnt/drive2 ext3 defaults 2 1
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
Any help would be appreciated thanks!
