Help. >> >>/djb I think he's referring to the factory created "restore" partition. Just my 2¢, I don't think having /boot on /dev/sda2 is a problem, as long as grub knows where to look, and you are able to update your MBR. Another thing, if this partition is what I think it is, it's meant to be a recovery mechanism for WinBlows systems. Probably configured for DOS. ;-) So, if you're going to run gentoo on that system, I doubt that you would run into any major problems. Again, just my 2¢. - -- gentux echo "hfouvyAdpy/ofu" | perl -pe 's/(.)/chr(ord($1)-1)/ge' gentux's gpg fingerprint ==> 34CE 2E97 40C7 EF6E EC40 9795 2D81 924A 6996 0993 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDKPykLYGSSmmWCZMRAvEsAJ9B/WpkkxJwlvKs6BDOP/K6UJtAIgCfUG1W sRBgSbLxCe/YOKlS+qLLnvU= =Iql+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
