Watch this: [root@pepewin ~]# cd / [root@pepewin /]# ls -al total 158 dr-xr-xr-x. 24 root root 4096 Sep 11 05:40 . dr-xr-xr-x. 24 root root 4096 Sep 11 05:40 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 9 04:46 .autorelabel dr-xr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Sep 11 03:40 bin dr-xr-xr-x. 6 root root 1024 Sep 9 05:12 boot drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Mar 3 2011 cgroup drwxrwxr-x. 2 root root 4096 Sep 9 04:38 .config drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 4280 Sep 11 05:40 dev drwxr-xr-x. 153 root root 12288 Sep 11 05:40 etc drwxr-xr-x. 5 root root 4096 May 18 06:33 home dr-xr-xr-x. 21 root root 12288 Sep 11 03:40 lib drwx------. 2 root root 16384 May 13 14:42 lost+found drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 Sep 11 05:40 media drwxr-xr-x. 6 root root 4096 Sep 11 05:18 mnt drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 May 18 06:33 opt dr-xr-xr-x 182 root root 0 Sep 11 00:40 proc -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 47311 Sep 11 05:40 .readahead dr-xr-x---. 21 root root 4096 Sep 11 19:27 root drwxr-xr-x 37 root root 1240 Sep 11 12:53 run dr-xr-xr-x. 2 root root 12288 Sep 11 03:40 sbin drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 18 06:33 selinux drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 May 18 06:33 srv drwxr-xr-x 12 root root 0 Sep 11 00:40 sys drwxrwxrwt. 28 root root 4096 Sep 11 19:27 tmp drwxr-xr-x. 14 root root 4096 Sep 9 07:15 usr drwxr-xr-x. 20 root root 4096 Sep 9 07:12 var [root@pepewin /]# /boot, /var and /home are at their proper mount points Therefore, what are the /mnt/xxxx versions about? right now they do not have anything [root@pepewin /]# ls /boot config-2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.i686 initrd-plymouth.img config-2.6.38.8-35.fc15.x86_64 lost+found config-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.i686 memtest86+-4.20 config-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.x86_64 System.map-2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.i686 efi System.map-2.6.38.8-35.fc15.x86_64 elf-memtest86+-4.20 System.map-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.i686 extlinux System.map-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.x86_64 grub vmlinuz-2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.i686 initramfs-2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.i686.img vmlinuz-2.6.38.8-35.fc15.x86_64 initramfs-2.6.38.8-35.fc15.x86_64.img vmlinuz-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.i686 initramfs-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.i686.img vmlinuz-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.x86_64 initramfs-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.x86_64.img [root@pepewin /]# ls /mnt/boot [root@pepewin /]# Javier On Sun, Sep 11, 2011 at 5:29 AM, Michael D.
