you *should* know what you partitioned for what, if you forgot, you |
| 7 |
can boot a live cd and check what you wrote in /etc/fstab. the |
| 8 |

|
| 11 |
title Gentoo |
| 12 |
root (hd0,0) |
| 13 |
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.17-gentoo-r4 root=/dev/sda3 |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
replace root=/dev/sda3 with your root file system (maybe something |
