Hi,
I'm trying to add a new drive using webmin on ubuntu server 11.10. I've wiped existing partitions, created a primary partition and have the following partition info:
Number | Type | Extent | Size | Start | End | Used by
1 | Linux | | 238.47 GB | 1 | 30402 |
When I try to create an ext3 filesystem with default settings on this partition, I get the following error:
Executing command mkfs -t ext3 -q /dev/sda1partprobe ; mkfs -t ext3 -q /dev/sda1 ..
Could not stat /dev/sda1partprobe --- No such file or directory
The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?
Please can someone help me out here as I have no idea how to get found this.
Thanks
