Fedora 7 and Rosewill RC-209 SATA PCI card


Recommended Posts

Ive got a new Fedora 7 box up and running with the intention to use it as a fileserver. Small problem so far. I bought this Rosewill SATA card to hook up my two Seagate 7200.10s. The reviews I've read said it works fine plug and play with Fedora, but the drives aren't showing up in system:/media.

 

The card is recognized by Fedora as far as I can tell in the hardware config module. I'm probably missing something stupid, but I don't remember having to manually find my connected drives in Mandriva.

 

This probably has a simple solution but I can't find it. I know once I find the drives I'll have to edit my fstab to get them to automatically mount each time I boot, but I think I can find how to do that.

Holy - wow, I did something right. Played around with using /mnt and got the drives recognized. Now I just need to format one of them.

 

After that I'll still need to do the fstab and make myself an rsync script to sync the files from the first drive to the second though.
