[PlanetCCRMA] 1394 Enabled

[Mark Knecht]

Fernando,
   Do this imply I need FAT32 compiled in to talk to this drive? Is it
possible to load it as a module?

Thanks,
Mark


[root@RH74H card1]# fdisk /dev/sda

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 3649.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/sda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 3649 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes

/dev/sda1             1      3648  29302528+   c  Win95 FAT32 (LBA)

Let me know if you manage to get them mounted. What filesystem? The kernel
only has read support for ntfs compiled in (current r/w support will
definitely have problems and corrupt the fs). I think here is a new ntfs
TNG project happening in 2.5 but I have not looked at that yet....
