11 ... Have you been following the gentoo handbook?
12 (http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=8)
13 It's an excellent resource, even though it is long. Don't rush it, or
14 you'll waste more time with errors such as this one. From the guide:
15
16 -----------------------------------
17 Code Listing 2: An example /boot line for /etc/fstab
18
19 /dev/hda1 /boot ext2 defaults 1 2
20 -----------------------------------
21
22 you will see that you have to change /dev/BOOT to /dev/hda1, or whatever
23 drive / partition you have boot on. And the same for the other fstab
24 entries.
