I copied some files from my Linux EXT4 box to an ntfs flash drive. I have ntfs-3g installed, and the files copied fine, but I could not view them on a Windows box. What happened? Did it not write them using NTFS? Did it mount the drive under a different file-system (is that even possible)? (1 Reply)
Hi,
I run Fedora 17.
I created a physical volume of 30GB on a disk with 60GB of space so there is 30GB of free space. On the physical volume, I created my volume group and logical volumes. I assigned all the space in the physical volume to my volume group. I need to add the 30GB of free space... (1 Reply)

rxformat
RXFORMAT(8) System Manager's Manual RXFORMAT(8)NAME
rxformat - format floppy disks (2.11BSD)
SYNOPSIS
rxformat special
DESCRIPTION
The rxformat program formats a diskette in the specified drive associated with the special device special. Special is normally /dev/rrx0?,
for drive 0, or /dev/rrx1?, for drive 1, where ``?'' is either "a" or "b" to indicate single or double density access. The ``raw'' device
must be used. Single density is compatible with the IBM 3740 standard (128 bytes/sector). In double density, each sector contains 256
bytes of data.
Before formatting a diskette rxformat prompts for verification if standard input is a tty (this allows a user to cleanly abort the opera-
tion; note that formatting a diskette will destroy any existing data). Formatting is done by the hardware. All sectors are zero-filled.
DIAGNOSTICS
`No such device' means that the drive is not ready, usually because no disk is in the drive or the drive door is open. Other error mes-
sages are selfexplanatory.
FILES
/dev/rrx??

BUGS
A floppy may not be formatted if the header info on sector 1, track 0 has been damaged. Hence, it is not possible to format a completely
degaussed disk. (This is actually a problem in the hardware.)
