HD Install :: Finding HD device
I'd like to throw DSL on one of my new Dell pizza boxes. From the Live CD command line, how can I determine which devices are available to build HD partitions on? hda and sda did not work.
TIA, DT
Follow up: I've thrown a SuSe 9.2 install cd in and let it do it's auto-recognize routine on the HD. It shows up as /dev/sda. I then booted DSL in mode 2 (character based) and attempted to run Code Sample |
cfdisk /dev/sda1 |
. cfdisk is unable to open the drive. Any idea why cfdisk can't open the device?

/dev/sda1 is a partition. You can't fdisk a partition.
Try "cfdisk /dev/sda"
original here.
