can't get magic newfs to work on gentoox 4.0 home
Posted: Sun Jun 26, 2005 12:05 am
I really hope someone can help with my question here. I've searched throughout the forums, and can't find any info on my problem. I installed Gentoox 4.0 home, ran emerge, and magic availible to see if there were any new patches, and it says I'm up to date. The fatx patch appears to be up to date as well from the install. So I went to make a new filesystem, since I plan on running a game server on my Xbox, and there's not enough room with the existing partition. I typed in 'magic newfs', gave it a name, and size of under 4GB, and it says that it created successfully, but if I scroll up, I get the following error.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.Enter the name for the new space: uoserver
Enter the size for the new space MB: 3800
uoserver will be created of size 3800 MB

The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?

All done
The partition has been mounted to /mnt/uoserver so you now have an extra
3800 MB of storage within linux. This image will be automounted on startup
