    Linux novice pleads: Please help with inherited BASH shell

    Our Linux guru intern left us for a real job and I don't know where to start looking for a solution to this problem. All I've found online are cryptic things I don't understand. My plans are to take some classes in Unix and Linux after I finish the Windows 2003 Server series but we need to deal with this problem now.

    Is there an easy way to upgrade our Red Hat Linux to stop getting the following message in our BASH script?

    "program parted is using a depreciated SCSI ioctl, please convert it to SG_IO"

    Thank you!

    What Red Hat Revision are you using, and on what platform (parisc, x86, SPARC)?

    My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive.
