Yep, /boot is always mounted (just to be sure I won't forget it, I always mount it before I even cd into /usr/src/linux). Running make && make modules_install does *not* create any links in my /boot directory, ever. Could it be that there's something wrong with my system(s) - at least three installations have always behaved like this . . . -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
