Hi Mike, > I'm going to take a shot in the dark, and guess that you formatted the > drive as ext2, instead of ext3. Try changing the ext3 entry to ext2, and > remounting. Ok, I tried that and I get the following warning: EXT2-fs warning (device ide2(33,0)); ext2_read_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2 Then I tried to mv a 250MB file from the /dev/hde drive to my /home partition and the server just came to a complete stand still. Server load was at almost 20 when I stopped the mv task. > Conversely, you could try "mkfs.ext3 /dev/hde" to format the drive in > ext3, and try mounting it with your fstab the way it is. This will destroy all data correct? ------------------------------------------------- WPPi.com | WPPi.Net ------------------------------------------------- http://www.wppi.com | http://www.wppi.net ------------------------------------------------- WPPi.com & WPPi.Net MailScanner Signature This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by WPPi MailScanner, and has been found to be clean. ------------------------------------------------- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
