-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Notice the 'noauto' option you have in your fstab for every one of your partitions.. this tells the mounter to 'not automatically' mount the partition:)...
I believe they (gentoo-devs) used it for /boot so you dont accidentally mess up your kernel while running, and if you want to install a new kernel, you should manually mount /boot.... you must have copied and pasted that line not knowing what the 'noauto' meant:) On December 7, 2003 04:13, Richard Ruth wrote: > At the beginning of my first boot after installing > gentoo (stage 1 install) there is an error message > that states that I need to specify the filesystem type > and that some filesystems are not being mounted. > (There are subsequent errors but they are probably > related to not having /var mounted ...) > > / mounts, but none of the other hard-disk based > partitions mount.
