Re: Raw vs Cooked space?

As I remember on OpenServer the partitions are: /dev/hd00 - first disk (the whole disk) /dev/hd01 - first disk/first partition /dev/hd02 - second partition ... /dev/hd10 - second disk (the whole disk) /dev/hd11 - second disk/second partition I don't remeber what partition device you have to pass to divvy (i.e. block or character special). The device names above are for block devices. To use character special devices just add 'r' in front of hd (like /dev/rhd10). You could get more information on this by running the command man HW hd Best Regards, Octav On Mon, Jan 31, 2000 at 11:27:15AM +0100, Tommi M'kitalo wrote: > > > > But you can fdisk the drive for 4 partitions, each having 7 per partition > > to allow 28 chunks per physical drive.
