Hi All,
Does anyone know the drive letter, label and partition size of a hard drive for a bcm 400 release 4? Thanks

 
The standard image of bcm 4.0 has various drive letters, labels and partition sizes, since one 20GB HD is partitioned to 5 or 6 different parts...
If you dont mind, what do you need those informations for?

cheers,

explosive
 
Hi,
Someone has given me an imaged hard drive but unfortunately there are no drive letters and the first partition is ext2 and all the rest are ext3. I thought that if I patition and label a new drive then all I have to do is copy the partition by size onto the new drive.
 
Will this do?.
