I have a RHEL v3 server which was re-installed Sunday. When I partitioned the drives during install, Linux designated them as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. This morning, whilst trouble shooting a different issue I discovered swap had not enabled itself after reboot. After probing the system, I discovered my drives are now designated as /dev/sdbe* and /dev/sdbf*. Why? Where did the change come from? These are two generic SCSI drives. It's a standard Dell PowerEdge; 6650 I think. Should I be concerned? Everything seems to work. I can traverse directories, write files, etc. And, now that I know what swap's device is, I've added it to /etc/fstab (which I'm confused why it wasn't there to begin with...). I didn't do anything differently during partitioning and installation than on other machines. In fact, the test box-which is basically a copy-still uses /dev/sda* and /dev/sdb*. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem? -- http://silolabs.net/~sparker/pubkey.txt -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
