Linux / Sco Stuff.

[Monty J. Harder]

You need to run mkdev hd and feed in the parameters for the drive, then will
probably need to reboot and run it again to create the filesystem.  If
you've added this second drive to the same controller, the parameters should
all be the same as the existing drive, except for the id= value.  You can
get the existing drive's parameters with the hwconfig command.  Let me know
if you need help with this.
