I'm wondering what you're after now: |

Gentoo Prefix is _not_ a complete operating system, but "just another |
| 15 |
program" on top of some running OS. So it does _not_ need an "empty" |
| 16 |
partition, and especially not a swap partition. |
| 17 |
It just requires some free disk space, which _can_ be on a separate |
| 18 |
partition, but it must contain at least a filesystem already mounted |
| 19 |
into your OS. |
