Oops , forgot about logical inside extended.
"fdisk -l" lists extended and logical as opposed to cfdisk.
Without KDE I couldn't hex edit so I never got to try 32x32xCYL.


Why not copy & paste the output of "fdisk -l" into a posting?


Now another question: how can you raid5 with only one drive, or are you
hiding something? NOT. We are no psychics.

??? IDE boot drive and 1 C2247 an an ISA aha1520 SCSI adapter.
I think SCSI adapter is always refered to as RAID.

Not that I know of, and raid5 is "stripe with parity" - it usually takes at
least 3 disks. How does your /etc/fstab look like?

Wow! didn't notice earlier that "fdisk -l /dev/sda >> info"
gives geometry but the partition info didn't end up in here.

"dmesg > info"

now how do I add mount my windows drive?
mount -t smbfs -o user=sambo //sambo-main/main-f /mnt/remote-shares/main-f

//sambo-main/main-f /mnt/remote-shares/main-f smbfs user,password????

It would seam the network is working eventhough the windows2000 networking icon is frozen and the status window does not come up. Maybe I was just typing the mount commands wrong in the past or didn't have the NIC up (lets hope).


Cheers, Sam.
