6. Mount the new disk

Create a directory where you'll mount the new disk, for example /new-disk, and mount it there:
mkdir /new-disk
mount -t ext2 /dev/hdb1 /new-disk

If the new disk will have more than one Linux partition, mount them all under /new-disk with the same organization they'll have later.

Example. The new disk will have four Linux partitions, as follows:
/dev/hdb1:    /
/dev/hdb2:    /home
/dev/hdb3:    /var
/dev/hdb4:    /var/spool

Mount the four partitions under /new-disk as follows:
/dev/hdb1:    /new-disk
/dev/hdb2:    /new-disk/home
/dev/hdb3:    /new-disk/var
/dev/hdb4:    /new-disk/var/spool

You must create the mount points for each level before you mount the partitions at that level.

Example.
mkdir /new-disk                                 [1st level]
mount -t ext2 /dev/hdb1 /new-disk

mkdir /new-disk/home                            [2nd level]
mount -t ext2 /dev/hdb2 /new-disk/home

mkdir /new-disk/var                             [2nd level also]
mount -t ext2 /dev/hdb3 /new-disk/var

mkdir /new-disk/var/spool                       [3rd level]
mount -t ext2 /dev/hdb4 /new-disk/var/spool

If you've created a mount point at /new-disk/tmp, you'll need to correct the directory's permissions to let all users access it:
chmod 1777 /new-disk/tmp
