Mounting ext3
I just formatted two hard drives because I want to install OSs (RedHat9 and Win98) on a separate hard drive. Now it's done, I formatted the 2nd drive to ext3. The problem now is, how can I mount and automount an ext3 hard drive?

From what? Windows can't see linux partitions, whether ext3 or otherwise. In linux, you mount partitions, not drives. As root run the following from a console:
# mount -t ext3 /dev/hdxx /mnt/[mountpoint] Where 'xx' corresponds to the partition you want to mount and 'mountpoint' corresponds to the mountpoint directory through which you wish to access the drive. If your talking about installing redhat, the install program will pick up your ext3 partitions and will install on them if you so select. Last edited by kilgoretrout; 07-09-2003 at 08:11 PM. |

Actully, if you follow the installer for whatever Linux distro you choose, all that will be set up for you. But of course, kilgoretrout is correct also.
