To get Fedora 10 to install, I had to shrink the initial partition down so I thought I’d install with just this:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on<o:p></o:p> /dev/sda2 10079084 1354216 8212868 15% /<o:p></o:p> /dev/sda1 198337 19162 168935 11% /boot<o:p></o:p> tmpfs 4149532 0 4149532 0% /dev/shm<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Then I’ll take the remaining 4.8TB or so and mount them after installing. The install went fine now with the smaller partition to boot with….<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> So, having not run Fedora for a bit, I thought I’d fire up FDISK but it tells me:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sda'! The util fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> So I fire up parted and create a partition (weird that it only supports ext2 vs ext3). That part seems to go fine and now I need to add that partition to /etc/fstab but now I get confused:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> UUID=8e37b3d8-a52f-4620-ad58-1ae79abd8b50 / ext3 defaults 1 1<o:p></o:p> UUID=74dfbed0-e91c-4d95-b09c-0b8eb9d96543 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2<o:p></o:p> tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0<o:p></o:p> devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0<o:p></o:p> sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0<o:p></o:p> proc /proc proc defaults 0 0<o:p></o:p> UUID=905ac254-05fb-4ca2-856d-01e05ee4a7d2 swap swap defaults 0 0<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I’ve never seen this UUID stuff before – how do I add my new partition to fstab? I’ve been reading that UUID is related to the GPT but is there a way for me to add this partition?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Also, what is the maximum partition size under Core 10?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Thanks for your time,<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Paul<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> </div> </body> </html>
