I'm trying to add a 2nd HDD to my linux box and I'm getting the error "FS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev sdb1."
The HDD came from an older machine, so I deleted the partitions using fdisk, then added a new, primary one using the minimum and maximum cylinder values it showed and ended with the 'w' command to write it to the disk.
fdisk -l gives
Code:
Disk /dev/sdb: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x81370383
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 1 60801 488384001 83 Linux
df -T /dev/sdb1 shows
Code:
Filesystem Type 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
- - 4087848 60 4087788 1% /dev
Which I'm guessing is bad because there is no type.
