Hi, |
| 15 |
|

this is incorrect. 179400 mounts would be enough (24 and 26 can both be |
| 17 |
divided by 2). Have you been running gentoo for 250 years? ;-) |

Maybe your counts are incorrect in another way. Let's say you install |
| 19 |
your system. You create root partition and install, reboot. Than you |
| 20 |
install all the other partitions. Maybe something went wrong and you |
| 21 |
needed to remount partition 4 four times ... |
| 22 |

Hope this helped a little. |
