I checked this out with 2 each 250GB drives using v9 builder.
It looked like everything was going well. It completed the build of hda correctly. It created the proper inodes for hdb until the end of the process it asked the following question which I had a 50/50 shot at getting it wrong. The following list shows what happened....
+ DRIVE12=hdb5 + logshow_message("Making ") 'Making ' + echo 'Making ' Making + echo 'POPUP 9999 Making ' + /bin/mkfs.ext2 /dev/ mke2fs 1.14, 9-Jan-1999 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09 /dev/ is not a block special device. Proceed anyway? (y,n) y ext2fs_check_if_mount: No such file or directory while determining whether /dev/ is mounted. /dev/: Invalid argument passed to ext2 library while setting up superblock + /bin/swapoff /dev/ swapoff: /dev/: Invalid argument + /bin/swapoff /dev/hda3 + /bin/swapoff /dev/hda6 + log 'Done!' + echo 'Done!' Done! + echoshow_message("Done!") 'POPUP 9999 Done!' + exec /bin/bash --login bash-2.03#
It looks like it got an unexpected response.
The partitions appear to be built identical (correctly?)....
bash-2.03# cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name
