Great. fdisk -l /dev/hde gives me
/dev/hde1 * ...
/dev/hde2 ...
/dev/hde5 ...
/hde2 and /hde5 give the same starting and ending blocks, so I assume
hde5 is the logical partition and hde2 is the extended partition
fdisk -l /dev/hdf gives me /hdf1 and hdf2
Problem: Neither ls /f (assigned in /etc/fstab to /hde5) nor /h
(assigned in /etc/fstab to hdf2) works
An interesting observation. On the drive labeled as hdf, I have the
second partition in fat32 yet both are shown as ntfs. Is Microsoft
jury-rigging this to seem to behave as fat32 when in fact it is actually
ntfs?
