moving my hard drive
looking at moving my hard drive from my controller card onto my onboard ide. currently my hard drive has been assigned hde so is the only thing i need to do is change the entry in the lilo config from hde to hda or is there more to it then that. like my etc/fstab file does it also change or will it get updated during boot.
here is my etc/lilo.config file prompt timeout="50" default=linux boot="/dev/hde" map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b message=/boot/message linear vga="792" image="/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-14" label="linux.bak" initrd="/boot/initrd-2.4.18-14.img" read-only append="hdc=ide-scsi root=LABEL=/" image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-19.8.0 label=linux.bak1 append="hdc=ide-scsi root=LABEL=/" read-only initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.18-19.8.0.img image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-24.8.0 label=linux append="hdc=ide-scsi root=LABEL=/" read-only initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.18-24.8.0.img etc/fstab LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/hde7 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0 /dev/hde2 /mnt/hde2 vfat auto /dev/hde3 /mnt/hde3 vfat auto /dev/hde4 /mnt/hde4 vfat auto /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 thanks for any advise, AD |
You need to change both lilo.conf and fstab (won't be changed automatically). Simple replace all hde by hda (and hde1 with hda1 and so on). With the two files changed it will work correctly.
