Today I managed to split my existing setup of one partitition for /, /usr, /var into a three partition setup, by using cp -a. Did you change /etc/fstab according to your setup? Are the necessary modules for the jaz drive includes via /etc/modules or compiled in? Where exacly does the boot process stop? Jens P.S.: Who´s writing?
