But I just checked. I exited out of /bin/bash, did a list /mnt/gentoo, found all as it should be. And when I chroot / is there as if I had booted normally. And so is /boot. Makes no sense. According to one respondent /etc/mtab might be worth a look. livecd / # less /etc/mtab /dev/ROOT / xfs rw,noatime 0 0 /dev/hda2 /boot ext2 rw,noatime 0 0 /dev/fd0 /floppy msdos rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 /dev/fd0 /floppy msdos rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 hmmm, that's strange; /dev/ROOT(hda4) is not xfs, it should be reiserfs. And when it was mounted the console noted that it *was* reiserfs. But /boot is correct. Or is it that mtab just lists defaults? But I notice that once I've chroot'ed I can mount drives according to the options listed in the fstab I wrote during the install. It's all a darkness. -mw __ Yahoo!
