Hello,

this is probablly really simple, but how do you check how much free space is left on the hard drive?

thanks

There is a command called df (disk free, wow

)

anyway, goto the terminal and type that in and there you go

and to make it even more readable, df -h (human readable

)

I would like to install a third Hard Drive in my system.
I have 2 already, one master and one slave on the first IDE channel and the second channel has the CDROM as the master.

Obviously the third drive will be the slave on the second channel.

My question is:
How do I get it formatted and mounted? I did the first two when I installed the O.S. (redhat 7.1).

If there is a how-to out there, please feel free to point me to it.

Thank you in advance for any responses/help.

Tom
