I started transfering files from my old linux server to my plan auth/cpu server.
I now have a spare harddisk that I like to install on my cpu server.
the cpu server
was installed with the fossil+venti option.
I have a few question due to paranioa and stupidity
1. I have two hd installed sdC0 is the fossil+venti cpu server. sdC1
is the new hd.
Is it safe fdisk and prep the other hd without damaging the data on sdC0?
2. How do I update venti.conf to include the new arenas?
thanks
,Fernan

Of course.

After you fmtarenas the new arena partition, you can
just add a new arenas line at the end of venti.conf and
then run fmtindex. You must run fmtindex when venti
is *not* running. Since you use venti to boot, you'll want
to do this using an install CD (boot as a live CD).
