I don't understand where the difference is. The installer treats it the same as a Linux system would. / would contain all files and directories that are not located inside of another mounted partition. I don't see a distinction to make? When you are selecting mountpoints, you can just think of that as a TUI for fstab configuration. What would you suggest to present the user differently? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJMKl8DAAoJEKj/C3qNthmT0TQP/3ogB9uufQk/jbF7znZsKeSU w8Gd7U3hfypqO3WYT6QzUSn7iVezvrtA7FckbGGKhVu7vzB/3mokGMnhCpSrHo3D nqv98EOkXRs/sLN3zps/WSbMyzWj754gqlau6ACzNIa7P8bI3Fgp2juxeKnOKtml TBgfuYABXlaeZys3nXinkTkghWSR3zHi8ExXYghEFqj+J+/zxrTKlJj6PDZjbUhC JzN1U4V8EzT/m3vVjNVY8/vUaA4MZqt4X8RYNNF/PdqRNT4E/S51f9/KEPZno5ml 8Z6LYFxGhHTw9JkHdtnejMHv3nnWn216cpfl7S5lOd/A/72v3elnvq60VAEcUqE0 HjhILnWVFU1FaTnc9z1Xeuu5brS4YmBQOJ/EGm/aHBMNJee7al8a8DZDd+ADB0pO yAvWH/iCjOkZ6hDsg3C5tkqk2aHCeTF7UkzgZ16OdsxDnsCRW6cAjcfOw0/wH70V X/bIlfr1zh7vvbhED9lNVfkHdwzsbwNgPfL2woBVA6DjL1JvGsc9vFHLfg9bH1XV ENZt+Jg9XIRd6EU05lpTCMTbezSUIvK7y4DbDlRXpEva0boBrpQUjdozlyf/B+/J DX8hq7peIUY3ApPg1kzeeAIrGoXXY9gpfE1GA9YnawR7iQRwuF0ypP/DGQCPZYLU ojT8BPFz7Sq9m8hhsUMk =khMA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
