RE: mounting an IDE hdd

["jayson" <jayson696 wf net>]

Thanks.

Tried: mount /dev/hdb1 /hd   and got this message:
	/dev/hdb1: Success
	mount: you must specify the filesystem type

So tried: mount -t sysv /dev/hdb1 /hd   and got this:
		mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb1,
		or too may mounted file systems
		(could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
		ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)

Not sure what that last part in () means. Sorry to be such a newbie about
this, but not exactly sure what I am trying is correct. The man pages for
SCO say it is an htfs, but don't see a type that may work for Linux. Tried
the hpfs that is in the man pages under Linux, but when try:
	mount -t hpfs /dev/hdb1 /hd   get:
	mount: fs type hpfs not supported by kernel.

<Shrug> don't know.

try mounting /dev/hdb1 (or whatever partition it is).
