I may have relly messed up my system it runs but may have a mount point messed up.
Here is my stats

bash-2.05b# mount
/dev/root on / type ext3 (rw,noatime)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
none on /dev type devfs (rw)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)


/etc/fstab
/dev/hda1 /boot ext2 noauto 1 2
/dev/hda3 / ext3 noatime 0 1
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,user,exec $
/dev/cdroms/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 iso9660 noauto,user,exec $
/dev/sda1 /mnt/flash vfat noauto,user,exec $


Kdiskfree reports

/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 iso9660 N/A /mnt/cdrom 0B N/A
/dev/cdroms/cdrom1 iso9660 N/A /mnt/cdrom1 0B N/A
/dev/hda1 ext2 N/A /boot 0B N/A
/dev/hda3 ext3 N/A / 0B N/A
/dev/root ? 7.5GB / 4.5GB 40%
/dev/sda1 vfat N/A /mnt/flash 0B N/A


grub.conf

kernel (hd0,0)/boot/kernel-2.4.20-gentoo-r5 ro root=/dev/hda3
hdd=ide-scsi
initrd (hd0,0)/boot/initrd-2.4.20-gentoo-r5

Please help me fix this.

Thanks

You should have a proc line in your fstab, other than that I don't see anything wrong:

none /proc proc defaults 0 0

No idea what kdiskfree output is supposed to look like, but the "N/A" and "?" entries look questionable.

What problems are you having? Or what happened that makes you think you are having a problem?

If you look at it I have four drives but I only setup 3 drives. had some grub problems and cdburner problems and still having. But I can't mount dev/hda3 with /mnt/ but must mount it as /mnt/root but that is suppost to be my hda1 sector. This is crazy to me and yes I have a proc line in my fstab jsut didn't past and copy it.

Do those entries look like the 4th device? If so, then it appears that you have some sort of USB drive attached. Any chance of that?

/dev/root on / type ext3 (rw,noatime) appears to be mounted correctly. /dev/hda1 appears to be /boot, not / (root). Also, that you have /boot setup with ext2 and / setup with ext3 suggests the same. By default, /boot doesn't mount when the system starts (a safety precaution). If /dev/hda3 mounts to /mnt/root OK and looks like your root partition, then I'd say all looks good.

Also, you might familiarize yourself with these instructions. Print them, take notes, ask questions etc. just in case something isn't correct. Also, if you know what sizes you partitioned your drive for, it might help to post that and fdisk (or cfdisk, etc.) info.

Well the one that bothers me is the one that is:
/dev/root ? 4.5 GB that drive is not hda1 but hda3 did not name that drive just left a / .
the one labeled dev/root is hda1


Thanks

here is my fdisk

/dev/hda1 * 1 65 522081 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 66 578 4120672+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/hda3 579 1568 7952175 83 Linux

As you can see I only have 3 hard disk lotments and yes I have 1 sda device that is my flash card reader.
