HOWTO: Format/mount a existing/new harddrive if you wish to upgrade or had an issue

I have tons of issues after updating to 2.0.xx firmware and one of which that is kindoff leaves me blank is that my primary data partition on the HDD is not mounted... i discovered this after upgrading to kfurge's 1.0.7.8 firmware, the mldonky is not starting up...

WARNING: Directory /shares/MYVOLUME1/MYSHARE1/.mldonkey is full, MLDonkey shuts down

so i checked...

[root@(none) MYSHARE1]$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 67.1M 67.1M 0 100% /
/dev/root 1.3M 1.3M 0 100% /mnt
/dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part2
67.1M 67.1M 0 100% /

the ... /dev/se/2 mounted on /shares/MYVOLUME1 ... is missing!?!?

i have already reset the router a couple of times and refrashed it and its still the same..

and so i wonder if theres anything i can do to mount this manually? is this proper in the first place.. is there any internal format or hd prep tools inside this box that i didnt know?

or is there any documentations out there on how to backup and upgrade the harddrive and all...

thanks for all the help!

There are a couple of us having the same problem in the Firmware forum.

Thanks,
