Need (want) a second Physical Disk Drive (

[Bob Cober]

/dev/hda4 represents the 'extended' container partition to hold the
extended logical partitions like hda5.

I think /dev/shm is a new thing in 2.4.x.  I am guessing it is for
'Shared Memory'.  

A second HardDisk will show up as device hdb.

To partition use fdisk.

To format use mkfs.
