The instructions have been good and thorough, execpt one thing that should be added is what to do if you have to restart your computer. While editing fstab my computer froze, and when I ctrl-alt-deleted i wasnt sure exactly where to start from. I think I am good now, but my /boot/ was empty even though I had copyed the bzImage file to it prior to reboot. It would be helpful for someone to note what should be done in the instructions -- like if the computer reboots is it necessary to bootstrap again? -Ryan There are no stupid questions, just a lot of inquisitive idiots.
