Hi,
actually I am reading the handbook because I intend to change from debian to gentoo.
I am some sort of a 'purist'.. however...
I just ask myself while reading chapter 3 very carefully:
isn't it necessary to modify any fstab after you installed partitions and file-systems resp.
mouting the same?
Since now I can't see anything comparable in the handbook.
Secondly I intend to install from scratch- that means no network.
Will I get a root-prompt after the fist steps of installation?
The controverse discussions in the web are not really satisfying...
