| lchln | Would anyone not busy be so kind as to help me with some partitioning and mounting via the CLI? | 07:20 |
|---|---|---|
| blahdeblah | lchln: Only us busy folks in here. :-) | 07:20 |
| blahdeblah | lchln: Just ask your questions and we'll do our best | 07:21 |
| blahdeblah | Or if it's not au-specific, you might find #ubuntu a bit more active... | 07:21 |
| lchln | it's not AU specific, but no one has spoken in there since I entered. :P | 07:21 |
| lchln | I have 1 TB drive put into a bay of my server. I'd like to make it contain one partition and then mount it. | 07:22 |
| lchln | I'm trying to work in Parted but am getting a bit confused. It's okay to start from scratch as there is no data on it. | 07:23 |
| lchln | Not really sure where to begin. | 07:23 |
| blahdeblah | lchln: do you know which device name your drive is? | 07:48 |
| blahdeblah | e.g. /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc, etc. | 07:48 |
| lchln | Hey blahdeblah, I have it all partitioned and mounted now. Just had to find the right drive. | 07:49 |
| lchln | However now when i boot up, I get a red 'FAIL' next to "Starting Read required files in advance (for other mountpoints)" | 07:50 |
| blahdeblah | lchln: My favourite command for locating that stuff is "lsblk -o NAME,MAJ:MIN,RM,SIZE,TYPE,FSTYPE,MOUNTPOINT,UUID,MODEL,SERIAL" - makes it really easy to find the relevant device | 07:50 |
