I am tring to mount a second hard drive that is a scsi drive.
the system sees the drive but I am not sure how to mount it. the drive was created with unixware. I do not want to re format it I really need to get into the drive.

Determine format type first.

Two ways to go.

One is to hope the filesystem is supported in kernel so that you can just mount it.

One is mount raw and try to read first part of drive.

I use an odd OS that has a way to show me format type even it it can't mount it.

might boot to solaris/opensolaris and use vfxs package if not installed.

"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10
