This is not in the installing phase exactly but I have compiled a new kernel with another network card and when I try to mount /boot/ i get the following error:
[mntent]: line 12 in /etc/fstab is bad
mount: can't find /boot in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
and here is the fstab file:
Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/fstab,v 1.14 2003/10/13 20:03:38 azarah Exp $
#
# noatime turns off atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't
# needed; notail increases performance of ReiserFS (at the expense of storage
# efficiency).  It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to
# switch between notail and tail freely.

# <fs>             <mountpoint>    <type>     <opts>            <dump/pass>

# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
/dev/hda1      /boot      ext2      noauto, noatime      1 2
/dev/hda2      none      swap      sw         0 0
/dev/hda3      /      ext3      noatime         0 0

#/dev/fd0      /mnt/floppy   auto      noauto         0 0

# NOTE: The next line is critical for boot!
none         /proc      proc      defaults      0 0

# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will
#  use almost no memory if not populated with files)
# Adding the following line to /etc/fstab should take care of this:

none         /dev/shm   tmpfs      defaults      0 0

/dev/cdroms/cdrom0   /mnt/cdrom   auto      noauto,user      0 0

Any ideas of what can be wrong? Because this is the settings recommended by the installguide and I managed to boot up without problems after installing but when I shall change the seettings and try to mount now I get this error..
