Unless they have changed very recently, SCSI only allows 15 partitions. If you look at the major and minor number for the SCSI devices, hdb is where hda16 would be. If you need more, then you probably need to look into something like LVM for logical partitions. -- Carl Johnson ca...@peak.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
