Add a second drive to your Ubuntu server
You have your Ubuntu Server up and running (with the help of “Installing Ubuntu Server 9.04“) but you're afraid you'll run out of room on your drive. To solve this problem you have installed a new hard drive, but because this is a GUI-less server you do not have access to the user-friendly GUI tools that make this job easy. So you're going to have to install this drive with the help of the command line.
GASP!
Never fear, it's not that hard. Just a few commands and you'll be up and running with your new hard drive installed on your server. This article will assume the physical drive is already installed on your machine.
