Hi, I am a newbie to both UNIX and LINUX and have been detoured in my Red Hat 5.2 installation by confusion about just what to type when it comes to naming my "root" partition. Do I type /root or just / or something else? My installation failed with the message: "Error during step "Install System" of the install" "mount failed: invalid argument" And the failure was about hda10 which is where my root directory was supposed to be. Thanks in advance for help with this. Lou Mulieri Hinesburg, VT
