adding a harddisk

[Christoph Harder]

Hello Matt,

thank you for the detailed description.

It worked except one minor problem with the fstab example which caused a panic.
I've had to add a /dev in front of the /serno like this
serno/S3ESNX0J219064Y-1.s1e      /data    hammer2   rw    1 1
->
/dev/serno/S3ESNX0J219064Y-1.s1e      /data    hammer2   rw    1 1
Everything else worked flawlessly.

Thank you.
-Christoph
