The only thing I changed was, that I commented out the test in the linuxrc program, that tries to read a file called version on the cd. This file did not exist in the first iso. Now it is in there. So there is definately no need to download 640MB again. Why don't you use the bootcd to restore your boot partition? e2fsck and reiserfsck are included. achim~ > > Thanks, Murthy > > _______________________________________________ > gentoo-dev mailing list > gentoo-dev@gentoo.org > http://www.gentoo.org/mailman/listinfo/gentoo-dev
