I gotta ask for help or I'm gonna hose my multi-boot system. I've got an A6 primary partition with various /usr and /var style partitions within. Pretty standard, but I ran out of disk space. I added a second primary A6 partition in the freespace of the same disk using fdisk, but cannot figure out how to use disklabel and newfs properly to add this new partition and then mount it as /var/www/htdocs. When I try to use disklabel, it seems to only want to use my existing primary partition, and not the new one. I have read the manual, which appears to be in Chinese, and then I read the FAQ, which says, "This will seem confusing." Yeah? Well no shit! :)
The parameters of this new partition are as follows: -first physical sector 15,052,905 (Cyl 937, Hd 0, Sect 1) -last physical sector 19,261,934 (Cyl 1198, Hd 254, Sect 63) -total physical sectors: 4,209,030 (2,055.2MB) -physical geometry: 1,823 Cyls, 255 Hds, 63 Sects Can someone walk me through this as if I were a monkey, and take me step-by-step? I wanna tell disklabel it's got to be /var/www/htdocs on the above partition, then run newfs, then mount it, and then add it to my fstab for good. Since it took my machine almost a full day to compile the kernel + all the binaries up to -CURRENT, I'd much rather not have to wipe it clean and reinstall with the correct partition size and do it all over again. On i386, in case you didn't guess. And I'm wearing my OpenBSD greenie t-shirt as I write this!! Thanks, Kelly
