17. ext3 file system you must first partition the hard disk with a program such as fdisk and then format the file system Partitioning with Fdisk The fdisk command requires you to specify the device you are partitioning as an argument to the command In the following examples the device will be dev hdb which corresponds to the second device on the primary IDE channel If you are working with a SCSI or SATA HDD then the first device would be dev sda second would be dev sdb and so on To begin using fdisk using this example enter 1 Open a shell prompt and log in as the root user 2 Enter sbin fdisk dev hdb NOTE If you need to exit the program at any time without altering your disk enter q 3 Now that you are in the fdisk program enter n to create a new partition The program asks you to choose a partition type choose e for an extended partition and p for a primary partition Before choosing the partition type be aware that Red Hat Linux which is most likely installed on your HP system only allows up to four primary partitions per disk If you wish to create more than that one and only one of the four primary partitions may be an extended partition which acts as a container for one or more logical partitions Since it acts as a container the extended partition must be at least as large as the total size of all the logical partitions it is to contain For more information on disk partitions see the An Introduction
18. to Disk Partitions appendix in the Official Red Hat Linux Installation Guide at http www redhat com docs manuals linux 4 After choosing the partition type and the number for that partition choose which cylinder head you would like the partition to start on You can press the Enter key to accept the default value 5 Next specify the size The easiest way to do this is to enter s1zeM where size is the size of the partition in megabytes If you press the Enter key without entering a value fdisk will use the remainder of the disk 6 Repeat this process until you have created your desired partitioning scheme NOTE By entering w you are permanently destroying any data that currently exists on the device If you need to preserve any data enter q to exit the program without altering the disk Formatting an ext3 File Systems with mkfs After you have created partitions on the disk drive using a partitioning program such as fdisk use mkfs to create an ext3 file system on each partition 1 Open a shell prompt and log in as the root user 2 Enter sbin mkfs t ext3 dev hdbx In the above command replace hdb with the drive letter and X with the partition number NOTE Using mkfs to format a disk partition permanently destroys any data that currently exists on the partition Assigning a Label with e2label After you have created and formatted a partition assign it a label using the e2label command This enable

CSI ID 0 15 for each SCSI device that is installed The reserved and available SCSI ID numbers for SCSI devices are M is reserved for the primary hard drive not reserved for the primary hard drive on Linux M 7 is reserved for the SCSI controller 1 through 6 and 8 through 15 are available for all other SCSI devices When 0 is used for the primary hard drive set the second hard drive to 1 the third to 2 and so on To set the SCSI ID on a drive see the instructions on top back of the hard drive for the correct jumper settings The drive probably displays a diagram of the jumper block This diagram shows you what blocks to cover with your jumper to get the desired ID For example if the drive needs to be set to 3 the drive might show that the 4 ID bits are at the far left of the connector IDO ID1 ID2 and ID3 then using the jumpers provided cover each block to set the SCSI ID Installing the Hard Drive After you have given the hard drive a unique SCSI ID you can install the hard drive into your system NOTE For product specific information refer to the Service and Technical Reference Guide for your HP workstation at http www hp com support workstation_manuals 1 Disconnect power from the system and remove the access panel 2 Select a drive bay in which to install the drive If installing more than one hard drive install drives in the order as shown in the following illustrations NOTE If you workst
