[gentoo-user] lvm without initrd

2007-06-16 Thread Florian Philipp
Hi! I'd like to know which parts of my system need to stay on traditional partitions and which directories can be moved to an lvm if I don't want to use initrd and still be able to boot. I think it's safe to move /home but what do I do with /var, /usr, /tmp and /opt? Thanks in advance!

Hi all, I faced an ethernet driver miss during my kernel configuration, because I had a wrong idea of what 'make oldconfig' did. I thought the oldconfig target build up a new .config file starting from the /proc/config.gz one then asking for new options. But It was not the case here: sd-4421
