Re: [gentoo-user] Starting problem after 'emerge -u world'

Hi Tom,

- snip -

Booting up Gentoo box with CD1 but I was not allowed to mount without 
knowing the FS

fdisk -l
only showing 'linux'
cfdisk /dev/hda3
showing
FATAL ERROR: can't open disk drive
press any key to exit
IIRC at time of installation I selected 'reiserfs'

Kindly advise how to find it out.  TIA

   

You need `cfdisk /dev/hda`  it will list all partitions on the disk and the fs type.
 

I tried both before

`cfdisk /dev/hda`
and
`cfdisk /dev/hda3`
same warning;
FATAL ERROR: can't open disk drive
press any key to exit

Also, your clock is very much in the future and throwing off mail sorting, is there anything you can do about that?
 

Sorry I don't follow.  Are you talking the clock of this PC in answering
postings?  I am sending and replying emails from a Debian box.  I just
check the clock and reset the hour and minute.  It is synchronized by 'ntp'
B.R.
