Re: Cannot use fourth IDE HDD with FC3 ?

Although I certainly sure that I do already use the fdisk and mkfs on Hdd ,
I will do it again. But is there any other reason for that for ex. setting
jumper on hdd?

After I do 'mkfs' it and set the fstab to ext3 then I reboot the system ,
the FC3 cannot mount the /dev/hdd1 and the system hang up for a long time
[more than 1/2 hour] and it asked for root password to enter the system to
recover and I must marked the fstab /dev/hdd1 and then reboot , the server
will boot properly but the fstab will then automatically create the line
dev/hdd1 /mnt/idedisk1 auto amconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
and the fourth system will be read only and could not be unmount.

which appeared to be the read only device. I cannot umount this device
and
mount it to /dev/hdd1 ext3 . I would like to use this HDD to store
the
nackup data. Does any one tell me how to do this?

Have you put a file system on it yet? If not you can use mkfs to do that.
