I just installed Linux on a system which came from the vendor with W2K... It has 2 40 gig drives. All 40 G are available on Drive 0. Only 7 Gig are available on Drive 1. What gives? Thanks Randy

What make and model are these drives? If they are IBM I would recommend using the DFT from IBM, very good utility. I cannot remember the web address, but searching for DFT and IBM on Google will give you the hits you need. Matt

Well, I cannot say. ;-) Maybe it's not partitioned "properly"? try too call fdisk and look at the partition table: root@marvin:/var/spool/mqueue > fdisk /dev/hdc [...] Command (m for help): p Disk /dev/hdc: 16 heads, 63 sectors, 33637 cylinders ^^^^^ Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdc1 1 33637 16953016+ 83 Linux ^^^^^ Command (m for help): you should see something similar.
