 Posted: Sun Jan 25, 2004 8:09 pm Post subject: Creating/Mounting Partitions |
 |
|
Hiya. Things are going pretty well. Got Knoppix up no probs and wandering through the Install doc fairly easily. Created the partitions etc. Now is time to mount them.
| Code: | 4.j Mounting: Now that your partitions are initialized and are housing a filesystem, it is time to mount those partitions. Use the mount command. Don't forget to create the necessary mount directories:
Code listing 40: Mounting partitions
# mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/gentoo
# mkdir /mnt/gentoo/boot
# mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/gentoo/boot |
Don't forget to create the necessary mount directories? I think that might be my prob. When typing: mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/gentoo I receive an error:
mount: mount point /mnt/gentoo does not exist
I think I missed something somewhere. Cheers!!

you dont have the folder "gentoo"
do this:
mkdir /mnt/gentoo
and try mounting it again

YES! I didn't think it would know which partition so I was trying:
mkdir /dev/hda1 /mnt/gentoo
Cheers!!
