Hi, |
2 |
|
3 |
since my old Gentoo installation seems to be screwed up (regarding |
4 |
the update process) beyond repair I decided to install a new one |
5 |
instead of waiting for help. |
6 |
|
7 |
I already made space at a certain of my harddisk and installed the |
8 |
stage3 there. |
9 |
Chrooting is one of the first steps to check, whether what I have |
10 |
done so is valid. |
11 |
|
12 |
But before deleting the old root and install the new one at its |
13 |
place I would like to do a atmost identical boot into the new |
14 |
root. |
15 |
|
16 |
As far as I know the kernel only allows to boot into a partition |
17 |
(instead of a directory on a partition containing the root |
18 |
installation) and I am still using devices to boot from instead |
19 |
of GPT. |
20 |
|
21 |
Is there any neat trick to do a real boot into the new root via |
22 |
the normal boot process (grub2) nevertheless ? |
23 |
|
24 |
Cheers |
