Harddisk Information Required


I have a linux fc7 box using KDE.
I have two harddisk installed in my linux system.
But how do I access the second hd or store some files in that.

Have you already partitioned it during the install process? If you open your home directory in KDE and look at the bottom, it will tell you how much free space you have. Check to see if you have the free space you are expecting. I know there are probably better ways to check the exact size of each partition but I can't remember off hand

Try this at the command line:
Code:
df -h
That will show you the partitions on your system as well as the size. Plus where their mounted.

I would use fdisk -l to see all the drives/sizes/partitions

fdisk -l
