Hi all, I have an empty HD 20G format with ext3 but i cant mount it in a filesystem. fdisk /dev/hdb -l Disk /dev/hdb: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 2480 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdb1 1 2480 19920568+ 83 Linux mount /dev/hdb1 /app/hdc1/ mount: you must specify the filesystem type The /etc/filesystem is: cat /etc/filesystems ext3 ext2 nodev proc nodev devpts iso9660 vfat hfs Runing a fsck in the HD return this message: fsck /dev/hdb fsck 1.27 (8-Mar-2002) e2fsck 1.27 (8-Mar-2002) Couldn't find ext2 superblock, trying backup blocks... fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/hdb The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 <device> Does someone could help me?
