Subject: Redhat 8.0 Questions
Installation of Redhat 8.0 went easily. After finishing wanted to know what
fstab
would show and so got the following:

[clay@localhost clay]$ cat /etc/fstab
LABEL=/                 /                       ext3    defaults        1 1
none                    /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0
none                    /proc                   proc    defaults        0 0
none                    /dev/shm                tmpfs   defaults        0 0
/dev/hda8               swap                    swap    defaults        0 0
/dev/cdrom              /mnt/cdrom              iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 
0 0
/dev/cdrom1             /mnt/cdrom1             iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 
0 0
/dev/fd0                /mnt/floppy             auto    noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0


Since LABEL=/ does not specify a partition I ran fdisk to find out with the
following result:

[root@localhost clay]# fdisk /dev/hda
bash: fdisk: command not found
[root@localhost clay]# locate fdisk
/usr/share/doc/util-linux-2.11r/README.fdisk
/usr/share/doc/util-linux-2.11r/sfdisk.examples
/usr/share/doc/rhl-ig-x86-en-8.0/s1-diskpartfdisk.html
/usr/share/man/man8/fdisk.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/sfdisk.8.gz
/ussrcsbin/fdisk
/ussrcsbin/sfdisk
[root@localhost clay]# locate ussrcsbin
/ussrcsbin
/ussrcsbin/fdisk

Since locate ussrcsbin produced the above I ran the following:

[clay@localhost clay]$ ls /ussrcsbin
ls: /ussrcsbin: No such file or directory

Can anyone tell me why fdisk does not work and what is "/ussrcsbin"?

TIA
