HELP !!!! Got a new HP97540 disk drive (1 gig, formatted). Running a DEC 5000 with ULTRIX 4.2. Want to install.... So far we have installed, rebooted, and know that new device is rz3 (did a MAKEDEV) We already have /usr and /usr1 file systems and want to create /usr2 and /usr3 on new device. Did a chpt -q /dev/rrz3a Says no partition found in superblock. Looks like we need to do a newfs command ???? Not sure how to create file system and partitions so that we can adjust sizes such that /usr2 is about 70% of new disk and /usr3 the remainder. What is process ??? Run a newfs ??? (how do I know it won't destroy old file systems ???? what about modifying fstab, disktab, what is newfs -N ??? (is this for a "dry run" ?) Also, looked at disktab and don't see HP .. Boot says RZxx type. PLease respond ASAP !!! -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dan Evans Please send direct replies to: devans@ecolan.sbs.ohio-state.edu Thanks ! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
