Selected Answer: B
The correct answer is B. The device file name for the second partition on the only SCSI drive is /dev/sda2. In the Linux naming convention for SCSI drives, the device file name for the first SCSI drive is /dev/sda, the second SCSI drive is /dev/sdb, and so on. The partitions on a SCSI drive are numbered sequentially starting from 1. Therefore, /dev/sda2 represents the second partition on the first SCSI drive.

Let's go through the other options for clarification: A. /dev/hda1: This device file name follows the naming convention for IDE or ATA drives, not SCSI drives. C. /dev/sd0a2: This device file name suggests a partition within a partition (sd0a) on the first SCSI drive, which is not a common naming convention. D. /dev/sd1p2: This device file name suggests the second partition (p2) on the second SCSI drive (sd1), which is different from the given scenario of the only SCSI drive. Therefore, the correct answer is B. The device file name for the second partition on the only SCSI drive is /dev/sda2
