System: Dell Optiplex 755
OS: Ubuntu 8.10
A hardware tech installed an additional disk dirve in my machine early this morning. He indicated that the BIOS can see the disk correctly. So, the question is How do I get Ubunto to mount this. i've looked in the forums and seen the discussion of adding a line to /etc/fstab, but I don't know what the device name should be. If I do "ls -l sd*" in /dev I get:
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 0 Dec 19 06:43 sda
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 1 Dec 19 06:43 sda1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 2 Dec 19 06:43 sda2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 5 Dec 19 06:43 sda5
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 16 Dec 19 06:43 sdb
when I do a "df" I get:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 230528596 8537340 210281080 4% /

pluse some other drive that are mounted over the network using fuse.
Is the new disk the sdb in /dev ?
If this has been discussed already please point me to the appropriate forum entry.
