Hello,
I've got Red Hat 9 installed fine on a 10Gb disk on /dev/hda1. I've now installed a new unformatted disk at what would be /dev/hdb1, for general storage. But I don't know how to format and partition it!
I've looked around and found advice to run fdisk or cfdisk from the konsole etc., but I can't find any of these programs, and I've checked the Add/Remove programs to see if I just didn't install them.
I'm sure I've missed out some fundamentally simple thing. But I don't know what it is...
# Red Hhat 7.3 down configuration commands setup leads to several configuration tools
# Red Hat 7.3 up configuration commands
Configure soundcard: redhat-config-soundcard
Configure X server: redhat-config-xfree86
Configure network: redhat-config-network
Manage software: redhat-config-packages
