Hi
I’m trying to mount a second Linux drive to retrieve some data from it.
I’m running Suse 10.3 and wanting to mount a drive that was running 10.1 but now has a boot failure.
My own hard drive is a SATA drive and the drive I want to mount is IDE (as a Slave).
If I do an fdisk -l this is what I get:
garthlinux:/home/garth # fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x0004a259
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 9400 75505468+ 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 9401 9729 2642692+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
Disk /dev/sdb: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders

/dev/sdb1 1 262 2104483+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sdb2 * 263 2873 20972857+ 83 Linux
/dev/sdb3 2874 9729 55070820 f W95 Ext’d (LBA)
/dev/sdb5 2874 5484 20972826 83 Linux
/dev/sdb6 5485 7182 13639153+ 83 Linux
/dev/sdb7 7183 9729 20458746 83 Linux
I see the new drive has been allocated as sda1 and 2 (was expecting it to come up as sdb1 and 2 etc)
How do I mount (and unmount when done) this drive now?
