15 You need to add the filesystems you created to /etc/fstab. You actually
16 edit fstab, not run it. eg. my fstab looks like the one attached.
17
18 Yours will probably look like (if I can decipher the HTML ;-):
19
20 /dev/hdc1 /boot XXX defaults 1 1
21 /dev/hdc3 /home XXX defaults 0 0
22 /dev/hdc2 swap swap defaults 0 0
23 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
24
25 Where XXX is the filesystem you've chosen.
26
27 But you seem to be missing a mountpoint for /. What do you mean by
28 "usr/home" on /dev/hdc3? Did you mean to say / is on /dev/hdc3?
