Hello list users: When I create a new partiton on a hard disk (eg /dev/hda2) with cfdisk or fdisk SUSE (currently openSUSE 10.2) won't recognize it and does not insert it's entry in /dev (as /dev/ hda2). For this I have to reboot the system. How can I have suse recognize the new partiton so that I could format it and use it without rebooting? Thanks, IG Utazások Erotikában - Vámos Miklós nemsokára megjelenő regényét előre megrendelheti nálunk. http://ad.adverticum.net/b/cl,1,6022,201702,253867/click.prm -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Once you've created the new partition, you can run "partprobe" and
then apply your filesystem of choice.
Hope this helps!

Thanks Mike. Next time I will try it. Interestingly the last time when I made new partitition with cfdisk (this was after my post) the system recognized it after writing out the new partition table. Is it possible that IDE and SATA disks behave different in this regard?

I don't think so. It depends on the partitioner and what the system is doing at the moment. Ie, in runlevel 1 chances are you don't need to reboot. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
