I came in this morning to find that my /var was at 101% capacity and that eMail could not be saved. I did a quick fix by linking the mail dir to a ristricted dir in the /usr volume but that did not have much space left on it either. Here is my problem. I added another hard disk. A huge external 640mb scsi 1 disk. It has one partition on it now (first I dd'ed it to kill any remander and then used Adaptec's AFDISK utility to give it one partition. when the system boots it shows up ok: (ahac0:2:0):"CDC 9419-15 5376" type 0 fixed scsi 1 sd1: Direct-Access 641MB (1312975 512 bytes sectors) but when I try to: disklabel -rw sd1 auto it tells me that it is an unknown disk type! I'm stuck here. I was doing this in single user mode. Any help would be appricheated, this mail is going through a different server so I will get it but I don't know how much more mail the main server can handle. -Sean ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sean J.
