Hi all,

I don't have any real experience with Linux and scsi so I need so
assistance.  

I have a IBM xseries 220 running Libranet 2.8.1.  It is a proxy server
running Squid.  Currently it has 1 18gig scsi drive in it.  I have a
36gig hot swap drive that I want to add to the system so I have plenty
of room for the cache to grow.  

What is involved in adding the drive?  Can I just stick it in and go?

I don't need it mirrored or raid or anything like that.  I just want to
add the drive format it, and move the /var partition to it.  

Thanks.
