Two questions regarding SCO v5.0.7 (partitioning)

Hi there

Following my success installing SCO openserver 5.0.7 on an HP ML350 G5 last time, I have been instructed to install the same 5.0.7 on an HP ML310 G5.

The ML310 G5 have the same RAID array as the ML350 (HP E200 SATA RAID) but the hard drives are larger (3x160Gb and 1x250Gb spare).

First I created a logical drive with the full space available (262Gb) but SCO refused to see the full extend of the logical drive free space. It only see less than 5Gb. Smilie

Then I deleted the logical drive, and created two logical drives on the same array, one of 160Gb and the rest with the remainder of the free space.

SCO installed well, and all seems to be working fine (network etc).

But there still is an unused second logical drive, how can I enable SCO to see and use that?

I understand that I have to use mkdev hd to create an entry in /dev for fdisk to use, but mkdev hd only works for ide or scsi and not for sata... and I'm Smilie

as to what I am to do now at this stage.

Any help will be welcome Smilie

Thanks in advance

Regards

Libs
