It says it's for RedHat but worked nicely on my 2.6.1 gentoo desktop. I skipped the bits about booting off a rescue cd as I was only doing this on my /home partition. No need to create /dev entries as devfs takes care of that, and haven't bothered changing the partition type, works ok so far, but I haven't yet rebooted. - -- Mike Williams -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFABTe6InuLMrk7bIwRAhIkAKCBKT51vW2c4jOURR2ZTWHMdkT+yACeNnYb eGkRX74MyNhWFLIh6aeN/iI= =7gBk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
