Hi all,
This is a question from a linux newbie. I am quite confused with
linux hard disk partition.
Someone tell me that i just need three partitions: /boot, swap and /.
Some others tell me to separate /home from /. There is some another
suggestion that i should separate /var form /.
RRPotratz wrote:
This CAN be confusing. Technically, the only partitions you NEED are
/ and swap. Even then you may not need swap if you've got a ton of
RAM. That being said, still make a swap partition.
When I try out a distro, I generally add a /home partition as well so
that if I install

I just have problem of compiling kernel. The standard debian way of
compiling kernel is using the make-kpkg. But i never successfully

What strange is that there is different error on different time.

I'm no expert on this but I think your problem is that lilo or grub is
pointing to /dev/hda1 instead of /dev/hda3 (your root partition).
Perhaps try putting root=/dev/hda3 in your booting script.
