Hi,

I'm on a gentoo 2005.0 install for my new home-fileserver. I use software RAID1 and settled /, /var, /var/log, /usr, /usr/local, /usr/portage, /opt and /home on seperate partitions. I'm at the point of mounting the partitions to /mnt/gentoo, but my situation isnt handled in the install documentation. After searching the forums a bit, my guess
is that I have to
Code:
# mkdir /mnt/gentoo/var
# mount /dev/mdX /mnt/gentoo/var
# mkdir /mnt/gentoo/var/log
# mount /dev/mdY /mnt/gentoo/var/log
....................

for all of those partiotions, but I dont have to chmod anything (this would just be the case with seperate /tmp or /var/tmp partiotions), am I right ?

This may sound stupid :oops: , but please confirm, greez

yeah this is correct

don't forget to write all the necessary information into /etc/fstab (should be handled later during the installation process)

No need to create those directories. /mnt/gentoo is already there so are /mnt/gentoo/var, etc after stage unpacking.
Just mount /mnt/gentoo then all the remaining partitions.
