I'm adding a 300GB hdd to a older P4 with intel D850MV mobo |
2 |
|
3 |
Running updated box as of 2 days ago. On bios inspection, this drive |
4 |
appears to be properly recognized, size etc. |
5 |
|
6 |
On bootup the dmesg record shows it being seen and recognized |
7 |
(hdc in this output). You may notice it is already partitioned and |
8 |
the partitions are recognized too. I did that from a knoppix session |
9 |
with fdisk. (On this same box) so knoppix was able to see and |
10 |
partition it. |
11 |
|
12 |
When booted up under gentoo, fdisk does not see this disk and complains |
13 |
of not being able to open /dev/hdc/ There is no /dev/hdc. The |
14 |
symlink was not created. Further the name gentoo uses of the form: |
15 |
|
16 |
ls -l /dev/hdb lrw [...] /dev/hdb -> ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0/disc |
17 |
|
18 |
One would expect an ide/host0/bus0/target2/lun0/disc for /dev/hdc |
19 |
|
20 |
How are these created? What is likely the cause of it not happening |
21 |
by default? |
