Linux Foundation Certified System Administrator (LFCS) — Question 41

Which of the following is the device file name for the second partition on the only SCSI drive?

Answer options

• A. /dev/hda1
• B. /dev/sda2
• C. /dev/sd0a2
• D. /dev/sd1p2

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, '/dev/sda2', because SCSI drives are typically represented as '/dev/sdX', where 'X' is a letter corresponding to the drive number. The second partition on the first SCSI drive is denoted by '2', making '/dev/sda2' the correct choice. The other options either refer to non-SCSI devices or are incorrectly labeled partitions.
