Hi,

Thanks for your response and advice.

I only have 2 partitions in my hard disc, the native and the swap.
I am sure I have added a mount point " / " to the native partition.

>Pls try this pls add a linux native with mount point
>/boot
>so you can divide your boot partition to your original mount point

Kindly explain how to add " /boot " to the native partition.  Is it to add 
a boot partition on the hard disc, making 3 partitions, boot, native and 
swap and thereafter adding a mount point " / " to the boot partition ?  How 
about the native partition whether a mount point " / " is still necessary ?

Thanks in advance.

B.Regards
Stephen Liu
