Ola! I dropped a used HDD into my Proliant N40L (running OpenMediaVault) and can see it in the "physical discs" table, however I want to create a filesystem on it and mount it but am unable - it doesn't appear when I click on "Create" in the "Filesystems" menu. I guess it needs "nuking" - erasing, partitioning or whatever. Can someone guide me through this from either in OMV or from a Linux command line. The disc is sitting on the SDA channel if that matters. Many thanks! Cleggy.
Delete the partitions on it. Maybe this helps ? http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/openmediavault/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=162
