Mounting partitions HELP
I've got the following situation:
/dev/hda :
- windows stuff
/dev/hdb :
- /dev/hdb1 : / (root)
- /dev/hdb2 : swap
- /dev/hdb3 : /boot NOT IN USE
- /dev/hdb4 : extended partition
- /dev/hdb5 : /home
- /dev/hdb6 : /usr
I've got two questions:
1. How can I mount the /dev/hda ( the bootloader says
/dev/hda1 ) (as root and/or as normal user) ?
2. Is it possible to clean ("format", initialize) the
/dev/hdb3 and set a new partition ( /tmp) there ?
I created during the first partition for redhat; It's
rather big as I didn't know a /boot should be small
and it was used to start the install of debian from
that partition.
Oh, and what type should be used ? I think /tmp or
/var but I don't know for sure.
Thanks in advance,
Joris Huizer
