OK, done! I was little stomped when I couldn’t tell which /dev/.. was the one, and Mr. Fulton helped me, and using Hardware Browser in RH, I figured it was /dev/hdb1 and it was formatted ext2. So I used following code:
mount /dev/hdb1 /’name’ -t ext2

A-HA! I’ve mentioned Streamsicle a few times before and how much I love the software. For some reason I was unable to run that on my new “quieter” Red Hat 9 Machine. Until NOW. I had to download j2sdk1.4.2 and extract the file, install rpm and THEN add the following line in your .bash_profile

I am back. Vacation was quite awesome. Nice weather, beautiful beaches, good seafood (I love Oysters) and to borrow Homer Simpson’s quote, “Mmmm, Beer.”
