Re: Expanding a partition -adding a hard drive
by Understudy on Wednesday January 22, @04:05PM
Amy,

FreeBSD won't allow you to merge e & g together. Why because they don't sit next to one another. You can merge e&f or f&g but not e&g.

If you could not see the harddrive with the sysinstall you may have issues witht the hard drive or it's master/slave settings. You will need to see the hard drive in the sysinstall before you can go through and change the partitions.

Sorry I don't have better news for you. Let me know how it goes.
