1 Well I have a gentoo system I'm trying to recover.
2 I've got it booted up via systemrescue.
3
4 I do not have a copy of the fstab, so what is the best
5 way to discover which partitions are /boot / and so on?
6
7 (brain dead tonight)....
8
9
10 I guesses but the / is blank?
11
12 df <snip>
13 /dev/sda2 61438696 51276944 10161752 84% /mnt/gentoo/boot
14 /dev/sda3 61438696 51276944 10161752 84% /mnt/gentoo
15
16
17 /mnt/gentoo/boot is populated (mounted correctly) but the /dev/sda3
18 which I'm guessing is / is empty ?
19
20 Been a while since I had to recover a system so referals to good
21 docs are most welcome....
22
23 No to mention an automount capability with systemrescue?
