Run fdisk and find out? If you boot knoppix (or Windows if you must

) and run the fdisk program then choose 4 to view partition info it should give you everything partitionwise about the disk... You'll still need to know what the filesystem is though (ext2, ext3, reiser, etc)
Hope that helps

You can mount the partition and then run

The gentoo install guide has that part well detailed, you could print it and check it while installing it, or if you have network while installing you can just browse the guide.

Instead of /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 and /dev/cdrom/cdrom1 i tried using /dev/hdd and /dev/hdc and the system answers me the same: wrong fs type.
