I've been trying to re-organise my drives somewhat. Since qtparted can't move partitions around (at least not the version on Knoppix 4.0.2) I decided to make copies of my partitions:
/dev/sda5 [/boot] --> /dev/sda7 /dev/sda6 [/] --> /dev/sda8 I modified (/dev/sda8)/etc/fstab like this to mount the proper partitions. I also modified GRUB's menu.lst, adding the following entry: title New system root (hd0,6) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.16-1-k7 root=/dev/sda8 ro vga=793 initrd /initrd.img-2.6.16-1-k7 However, when booting "New system" I still end up with the following: % mount|grep sda /dev/sda6 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro,acl) /dev/sda5 on /boot type ext2 (rw,nosuid,nodev) What's going on here, and how do I boot the copy I made? /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://therning.org/magnus Software is not manufactured, it is something you write and publish.
