A couple days ago, I mentioned I had 'unavailable'
partiton on hd. Well, mkfs.ext3 partitioned it
apparently, but it is now 'permission denied' or
something like that.. I even got it to say it wrote to
it once, but on re powerup, data was vapor. Hum.

root@ttyp0[etc]# cat fstab
proc       /proc       proc   defaults            0 0
pts        /dev/pts    devpts mode=0622           0 0
/dev/fd0   /mnt/auto/floppy auto  
user,noauto,exec,umask=000    0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/auto/cdrom  auto   user,noauto,exec,ro

hde1 and 5 write/save okay, but 5 is small..intended
for the installed o/s (84% full per Kdiskfree). hde7
was supposed to be the 'home/mystuff' area, but
neither installed nor Knoppix live recognize it for
writing. 

I used:

# mkfs.ext3 -t /dev/hde7

for command to make the fs on hde7, what should I have
used? Do I need to setup permissions and how?

Nothing more is expected. 

Nothing less is acceptable!
