Subject: [gentoo-user] Information request: root directory not listed by df

I followed the method outlined in the Gentoo installation docs, placing
/boot on a small partition. Then when booting, I specify the root directory
in grub.conf.
The device is listed in /etc/fstab
/dev/sda4 / ext3
noatime 0 1
However, df doesn't list /dev/sda4. Is this because it was specified as a
parameter?
The following are listed by df:
rootfs 9780176 8060012 1223356 87% /
/dev/root 9780176 8060012 1223356 87% /
Thank you,
Alan Davis
