Hi,

I have a Raq4r with 2x 30GB drives.
It has been installed with 4r OS.

Now the problem is, the BIOS did not recognize the 30GB for some reason. And it partitioned it as a 5GB drive...

How do I get the extra 25GB?

That's a common problem, not sure that I've seen a solution from Sun. I don't even know the real reason it continues to happen.

Try the very latest ISO from Sun, they just released new versions on 4/26/02.

Otherwise, you'll have to do a fresh restore and then use Partition Magic to resize /home on each drive. Never done that on a RaQ4r, though, so not sure if there are any RAID implications of doing that.

Good luck,

Brandon
