Re: SCSI on v6.0

On the same subject,
Q: What is the best way to proceed with formating and partitioning the drives?
Redo installation process, or is there away to set them up without reinstallation?
I will want to assign one of the SCSI drives to the /usr file system and the other
to the /var file system when the one ATA drive that is being used has it all now.
Anyhow, I'm being lazy with this query and I do intend to RTFM.


You can check to see if your drive was detected via dmesg. It should appear as daN (N being a number).

You can run sysinstall and set up new disks at any time.
