so, you've fdisk'd all your partitions to be the sizes you want. Now, to make a reiserfs partition, just do: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
mkreiserfs /dev/hda1 |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
or the equivalent depending on which paritions you'd like to filesystemize. :) |

let's say your root filesystem is hda1. to mount that to /mnt/gentoo, make sure that /mnt/gentoo exists (if not, mkdir -p /mnt/gentoo) and do: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/gentoo |
| 17 |
mkdir /mnt/gentoo/boot |
| 18 |
mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/gentoo/boot |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
again, i'm assuming that hda1 is your root partition and hda2 is your boot. you'll surely going to need to fix those numbers for your specific install. |

hope that helps out. if not, drop by #gentoo on the openprojects irc network (irc.linux.com, irc.debian.org, etc.) |
