I'd like to setup raid1 on my slug but as i'm running an extended partition it won't let me. There's no important data on the drive so thought i'd repartition
doing fdisk on the usb stick on my linux box existing paritions was showing as Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sde1 * 1 257 263152 83 Linux /dev/sde2 258 4354 4195328 83 Linux /dev/sde3 4355 14996 10897408 5 Extended /dev/sde5 4355 4419 66544 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sde6 4420 14996 10830832 83 Linux for as new one I thought i'd try Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sde1 * 1 256 262128 83 Linux /dev/sde2 257 14931 15027200 83 Linux /dev/sde3 14932 14996 66560 82 Linux swap / Solaris From http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/unpack.html I understand "you need to create /dev/sdb1 for the boot partition, /dev/sdb2 for the root partition, /dev/sdb3 as an extended partition from which swap (sdb5) and home (sdb6) are created." and any changes to be done in fstab. My partition scheme above didn't work as I assume I didn't have a / partition? Basically I want 256MB boot 64MB swap rest=home. Can anyone recommend a parition layout for me? thanks |
