getting gentoo linode to see new disk
Here is my fstab:
/dev/xvda / ext3 noatime 0 1
/dev/xvdb none swap sw 0 0
/dev/xvdc /backup ext3 noatime 0 2
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom audo noauto,ro 0 0
The one I added was /backup and xvdc corresponds to the new ext3 disk I setup in the "Linode Configuration Profile".

1. After creating the disk image, did you assign it to your linode in the config profile editor before rebooting?
2. Did you format the partition? There is an option to have it pre-formatted upon creation…
$ ls -l /dev/xvd?
Did you create the mount point?````
# mkdir /backup
