Subject: [9fans] creating a plan 9 partition in the MIDDLE of a disk
Date: Sun,  7 Dec 2003 19:52:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.44.0312071948400.25884-100000@maxroach.lanl.gov> (raw)

I have a disk which has a Plan 9 partition in the middle:

(on Linux ...)
[root@q plan9]# fdisk /dev/hde

Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/hde: 2 heads, 32 sectors, 490 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 64 * 512 bytes

   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hde2           130       490     11552   39  Plan 9


(now to Plan 9)

disk/prep /dev/sdC0/plan9
no plan9 partition table found
  empty               0 23104    (23104 sectors, 11.28 MB)
>>> a nvram
start sector: 0
end [0..23104] 100
?overlaps with the pbs and/or the partition table
>>>


ok, what silly mistake am I making?

thanks

ron
