Subject: Creating partition devices after creating a partition on a harddisk?
Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 11:14:29 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060223111429.GA21178@sci.fi> (raw)
I added a partition to a harddisk yesterday, but after I exited fdisk
I couldn't mkfs on it, because the device node didn't exist, /dev/hda7
to be exact. After manually creating it with mknod, I still couldn't
mkfs. So I removed the manually created node and rebooted and then I
had the node and could mkfs.
But what does one do to accomplish the same thing without rebooting?
