Correction for the record: Both partitions on hdf are in NTFS format -- David
-----Original Message----- From: David Turetsky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, February 08, 2003 12:32 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: fstab/mount filesystem nomenclature Great. fdisk -l /dev/hde gives me /dev/hde1 * ... /dev/hde2 ... /dev/hde5 ... /hde2 and /hde5 give the same starting and ending blocks, so I assume hde5 is the logical partition and hde2 is the extended partition fdisk -l /dev/hdf gives me /hdf1 and hdf2 Problem: Neither ls /f (assigned in /etc/fstab to /hde5) nor /h (assigned in /etc/fstab to hdf2) works An interesting observation. On the drive labeled as hdf, I have the second partition in fat32 yet both are shown as ntfs. Is Microsoft jury-rigging this to seem to behave as fat32 when in fact it is actually ntfs? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
