Hi there… I’ve been reading through various docs but getting a
bit lost – figure this must be fairly easy to explain ;) On my machine (Dell R710 Poweredge) I have 6 SAS drives
running RAID5 via Perc 6/I controller. To get Fedora 10 to install, I had
to shrink the initial partition down so I thought I’d install with just
this: Filesystem
1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda2
10079084 1354216 8212868 15% / /dev/sda1
198337 19162 168935 11% /boot tmpfs
4149532 0
4149532 0% /dev/shm Then I’ll take the remaining 4.8TB or so and mount
them after installing. The install went fine now with the smaller
partition to boot with…. So, having not run Fedora for a bit, I thought I’d
fire up FDISK but it tells me: WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sda'!
The util fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted. So I fire up parted and create a partition (weird that it
only supports ext2 vs ext3). That part seems to go fine and now I need to
add that partition to /etc/fstab but now I get confused: UUID=8e37b3d8-a52f-4620-ad58-1ae79abd8b50
/
ext3 defaults 1 1 UUID=74dfbed0-e91c-4d95-b09c-0b8eb9d96543
/boot
ext3 defaults 1 2 tmpfs
/dev/shm
tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts
/dev/pts
devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs
/sys
sysfs defaults 0 0 proc
/proc
proc defaults 0 0 UUID=905ac254-05fb-4ca2-856d-01e05ee4a7d2
swap
swap defaults 0 0 I’ve never seen this UUID stuff before – how do
I add my new partition to fstab? I’ve been reading that UUID is
related to the GPT but is there a way for me to add this partition? Also, what is the maximum partition size under Core 10? Thanks for your time, Paul |
