Hi,
I just bought a Seagate 1TB USB drive thinking that I could create a
few partitions in it, format in ext3 fs, then configure bacula to
setup a backup server in my CentOS box and backup my windows and mac
clients.
I have plugged the drive and mounted in /mnt/usbdrive and is seen as
/dev/sdb1 by the OS. The output of df command is:
[root@Production ~]# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
74859680 16053996 55002960 23% /
/dev/sda1 101086 27066 68801 29% /boot
none 480176 0 480176 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sdb1 976760032 97808 976662224 1% /mnt/usbdrive
I am thinking of having three partitions instead of just one whole big 1 TB
thing, and then format all three partitions in ext3. I tried doing
fdisk, but cylinders are always confusing for me. Is there any GUI
tool that could help me achieve this as I am newbie to Linux and not
very confident with commands. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
