Mounting a 3rd, Ext3 backup drive.

[Trendane]

Okay, when I was backing up data from my Mandrake install so I could put on FC4, I moved a sizable chunk of data onto one of my extra harddrives I had laying around. It's formatted EXT3, and I have it hooked up as the secondary slave (CD/DVD-ROM is sec. Master) but I'm having some trouble figuring out how to mount it so I can pull the data off.

Any suggestions?

You need to find out what your drive is called in /dev, say /dev/hdc. Then make a directory under /mnt, say /mnt/hd and mount your disk using "mount /dev/hdc /mnt/hd". That should do it.

Aha! Looks like it was hdb1. That explains the trouble. I was thinking it was hdd1
