You need to know the names that Linux uses when you create -and mount partitions. Here's the basic naming scheme: - - - - - -The first floppy drive is named /dev/fd0. - - - - -The second floppy drive is named /dev/fd1. - - - - -The first SCSI disk (SCSI ID address-wise) is named -/dev/sda. - - - - -The second SCSI disk (address-wise) is named -/dev/sdb, and so on. - - - - -The first SCSI CD-ROM is named /dev/scd0, also -known as /dev/sr0. - - - - -The master disk on IDE primary controller is named -/dev/hda. - - - - -The slave disk on IDE primary controller is named -/dev/hdb. - - - - -The master and slave disks of the secondary controller can be called -/dev/hdc and /dev/hdd, -respectively. Newer IDE controllers can actually have two channels, -effectively acting like two controllers. - - -The letters may differ from what shows in the mac program pdisk -(i.e. what shows up as /dev/hdc on pdisk may show -up as /dev/hda in Debian). - - - - - - -The first XT disk is named /dev/xda. - - - - -The second XT disk is named /dev/xdb. - - - - -The first ACSI device is named /dev/ada, the -second is named /dev/adb. - - - - - - - -The first DASD device is named -/dev/dasda. - - - - -The second DASD device is named -/dev/dasdb, and so on. - - - - - - -The partitions on each disk are represented by appending a decimal -number to the disk name: sda1 and -sda2 represent the first and -second partitions of the first SCSI disk drive in your system. - - - -Here is a real-life example. Let's assume you have a system with 2 -SCSI disks, one at SCSI address 2 and the other at SCSI address 4. -The first disk (at address 2) is then named sda, -and the second sdb. If the -sda drive has 3 partitions on it, these will be -named sda1, sda2, and -sda3. The same applies to the -sdb disk and its partitions. - - - -Note that if you have two SCSI host bus adapters (i.e., controllers), -the order of the drives can get confusing. The best solution in this -case is to watch the boot messages, assuming you know the drive models -and/or capacities. - - - -Linux represents the primary partitions as the drive name, plus the -numbers 1 through 4. For example, the first primary partition on the -first IDE drive is /dev/hda1. The logical partitions are -numbered starting at 5, so the first logical partition on that same -drive is /dev/hda5. Remember that the extended -partition, that is, the primary partition holding the logical -partitions, is not usable by itself. This applies to SCSI disks as -well as IDE disks. - - - -VMEbus systems using the TEAC FC-1 SCSI floppy drive will see it as normal -SCSI disk. To make identification of the drive simpler the installation -software will create a symbolic link to the appropriate device and name -it /dev/sfd0. - - - -Sun disk partitions allow for 8 separate partitions (or slices). The -third partition is usually (and is preferred to have) the Whole -Disk partition. This partition references all of the sectors of the -disk, and is used by the boot loader (either SILO, or Sun's). - - - -The partitions on each disk are represented by appending a decimal -number to the disk name: dasda1 and -dasda2 represent the first and -second partitions of the first DASD device in your system. - - - -- cgit v1.2.3
