I always use the -3 option. Lots of configfiles I have never touched, so they can be replaces safely (I think :-) ). When neccesary I go to another console (ctrl-alt-F2) to make a copy of the file that will be replaced. I could not find any merge option in env-update :-(. It would be nice if there is one, that merges the old config with the new one.

Or you can start with the gentoo life cd, mount the partition and edit fstab. Make a bootable cd with lilo in case it happens again :-) --Kees -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
