If so, you need to go out of /boot before you can unmount it. > Is there a problem leaving the redundant /boot on sda3? No. In fact, you need it -- it's the mount point. The "redundant" /boot (on sda3) would ideally be empty, but do not delete the contents of the mounted /boot (on sda1)! If there's anything inside /boot on sda3, you simply won't see it while sda1 is mounted there, which could be confusing, but shouldn't cause any harm. -- Stuart Brady -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
