Thanks Carl, but originally the Disklabel type: was DOS. I thought since my current system drive had a type of gpt I should change it. I could post the same information with Disklabel type : DOS and it would not change the problem. There is some other problem

You don't appear to be using the right tools. 'fsck' is filesystem check and repair, not "format." I think Patrick's suggestion makes the most sense in this case.
I've tried to find the command which will format a HD. I believe fdformat is for floppy disks. Can you be more specific as to command name. Also, I not sure who Patrick is and what his suggestion was in this case. I've looked in /sbin /bin /usr/sbin and /usr/bin with little luck. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
