I installed the kernel and other updates from RPM on my Athlon Red Hat
7.0 system:
Linux malachite 2.4.0-SGI_XFS_PR #1 Fri Jan 12 00:05:18 CST 2001 i686 unknown
It boots OK, except something seems to blow /dev/mouse away during the
boot.
I hooked up a drive with an XFS filesystem created on an IRIX
system. This is just a test; the FS contains junk files.
During the boot, the kernel reports:
Detected scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 1, lun 0
SCSI device sda: 91923356 512-byte hdwr sectors (47065 MB)
Partition check:
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target1/lun0: unknown partition table
But fdisk sees the partition table OK:
Disk /dev/sda (SGI disk label): 28 heads, 328 sectors, 10009 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 9184 * 512 bytes
----- partitions -----
Device Info Start End Sectors Id System
/dev/sda8 1 10009 91919260 a SGI xfs
/dev/sda9 0 0 4096 0 SGI volhdr
/dev/sda11 0 10009 91923356 6 SGI volume
And the only device file associated with the disk is /dev/sda--no
sda8, sda9, or sda11.
I tried mounting /dev/sda, and got:
# mount -t xfs /dev/sda /mnt
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda,
or too many mounted file systems
Anyone have any ideas? I'm a linux-xfs newbie, but I'm familar with
XFS and Linux.
