You can pretty much assume it is for all the partition on the disk. 08 is the scsi major for scsi disks. 01 is the minor for the first partition of the first disk 11 is the minor for the 10th partition on the first disk. Each disk has a maximum of 16 partitions, 0 through 15. eg: [mgalgoci@workstation0 ~]$ ls /dev/sd* -al brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 0 2007-01-18 14:03 /dev/sda brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 1 2007-01-18 14:03 /dev/sda1 brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 2 2007-01-18 14:03 /dev/sda2 brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 16 2007-01-18 14:03 /dev/sdb brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 17 2007-01-18 14:03 /dev/sdb1 brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 18 2007-01-18 14:03 /dev/sdb2 I hope that clears it up for you. -- Matthew Galgoci GIS Production Operations Red Hat, Inc 919.754.3700 x44155 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
