Seems to me like the devfs naming scheme. Use udev instead and you should be back to the dev names you are used to. If you do so, you should change entries in /etc/fstab adequatly _before_ reboot, since the naming of devices including partitions changes when you use udev.
A guide for udev can be found in the docs on gentoo.org On Fri, 25 Feb 2005 09:57:06 +0200, Matan Peled <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Rui Silva wrote: > > i'm having kinda of a problem with df > > > > the output of df id > > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ df > > Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on > > /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part5 > > 10241084 4328040 5913044 43% / > > /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part6 > > 30353852 1214776 29139076 5% /home > > none 516768 0 516768 0% /dev/shm > > > > > > instead of showing me the partitions like /dev/hda5 it shows > > /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part5 > > > > why ??? > > > > > > i did a fresh install a few days ago and ever since it shows this > > Try installing udev. > > -- > [Name ] :: [Matan I.
